'74 Jailbreak
JAILBREAK (1976)
(Bon Scott, Angus & Malcolm Young)
There was a friend of mine on murder
And the judge's gave a fell,
Jury found him guilty,
Gave him sixteen years in hell.
He said I ain't spending my life here
I ain't living alone
Ain't breaking no rocks on the chain gang,
I'm breaking out and headin' home.
Gonna make a Jailbreak
And I'm looking towards the sky,
I'm gonna make a Jailbreak
Oh, I wish I could fly.
All in the name of liberty
All in the name of liberty
Just set me free
Jailbreak, let me out of here
Jailbreak, sixteen years
Jailbreak, had more than I can take
Jailbreak, yeah
He said he'd seen his lady being fooled with
By another man
She was down and he was up
He had a gun in his hand.
Bullets started flying everywhere
And people started to scream
Big man lying on the ground
With a hole in his body
Where his life had been
But it was
All in the name of liberty
All in the name of liberty
I got to be free
Jailbreak, Jailbreak
I got to break out
Out of here.
Heartbeats they were racin',
Freedom he was chasin',
Spotlights, sirens, rifles, firing,
But he made it out
With a bullet in his back
YOU AIN'T GOT A HOLD ON ME (1974)
(Bon Scott, Malcolm & Angus Young)
You can roll me round your finger
You can roll me if I'm blind
You can roll me tally ho ho,
I'm easy rollin' kind.
But don't think I'm facin' down hill,
'Cause you'll soon see,
You'll lose your grip and slip,
'Cause you ain't got a hold on me.
You ain't got a hold on me,
You ain't got a hold on me,
Why don't you let me free,
"Cause you ain't got a hold on me
You can take me to your bedroom,
You can take me to your heart,
You can take me to a climax,
I won't fall apart.
But don't count on me givin' it
All back to you,
Just because I'm hooked on livin'
Doesn't mean I'm hooked on livin'
Doesn't mean I'm hooked on you.
SHOW BUSINESS (1974)
(Bon Scott, Angus & Malcolm Young)
You learn to sing,
You learn to play,
Why don't the businessmen
Ever learn to pay.
That's show business,
Show business
Show business
That's the way it goes.
You play in halls,
You play in bars,
You're climbin' walls
Chasin' stars.
You pay the men
You pay your dues
When it's all gone
You sing the blues.
You wanna roll
You wanna rock
But you find it hard
If your guitar's in hack.
We smoke our butt's
they smoke cigars
We drown in debt
They drown in bars
You pull a chick
Take her home
no use, man,
You're worn out to the bone.
SOUL STRIPPER (1974)
(Malcolm & Angus Young)
Well, I met her in the garden,
Underneath that apple tree,
Sitting with a handful of flowers,
Looking as cool as can be.
We talked away a couple of hours
Then she laid her hand on my lap,
Oh, I thought I got to be dreaming,
I didn't know I fell in her trap.
Then she made me say things I didn't want to
Say,
Then she made me play games I didn't want
to play.
She was a soul stripper, she took my heart,
Soul Stripper, and tore me apart.
She started moving nice and easy
Slowly getting into my spine
Killing of this nice little feeling
Ooooh, everyone she could find.
And when she had me hollow and naked.
That's when she put me down
Pulled out a knife and flashed it before me
Stuck it and turned it around.
BABY PLEASE DON'T GO (1976)
(Joe Williams)
Baby please don't go
Baby please don't go
Baby please don't go down New Orleans
You know I love you so
Baby please don't go
When the man done gone
When the man done gone
When the man done gone down the county
Farm
He got the shackles on
Baby please don't go
Don't leave me
I'll be a dog
I'll be a dog
I'll be a dog kiss your way down here
When you walk along
Baby please don't go.
