Rough and Ready

[Verse 1]

Well, you're brought up on the streets

Did ya make it on your own?

Are ya living in the shadow?

Crawling in the night

Sleeping in the subway

Beggin' for a fight

Makes ya grow up hard, boy

Ain't you ready for a fight?

[Chorus]

I don't need no one, you can keep your sympathy

I live on my own, I would make that company

I don't need no one, you can keep your sympathy

I live on my own, I would make that company

I'm rough and ready tonight

God help you

[Verse 2]

Standing on the corner

And asking for a smoke

And I'll kick you in the teeth, boy

And steal away your girl

Talked into a knife fight

They cut me to the bone

Don't ya mess with me, boy

Ya better leave me alone

[Chorus]

I don't need no one, you can keep your sympathy

I live on my own, I would make that company

I don't need no one, you can keep your sympathy

I live on my own, I would make that company

I'm rough and ready tonight

God help you

[Verse 3]

Maybe seeing a car girl

I'll take you for a ride

The cops will never break me

Steal away my pride

If you're looking for a good time

And you wanna ride with me

And you're feeling rough and ready

Rough and ready with me

[Bridge]

You can change my life

You can read my mind

I don't want no one

I don't have no one

I don't need no one

You can keep your sympathy

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 1]

Well, you're brought up on the streets

Did ya make it on your own?

Are ya living in the shadow?

Crawling in the night

Sleeping in the subway

Beggin' for a fight

Makes ya grow up hard, boy

Ain't you ready for a fight?

[Chorus]

I don't need no one, you can keep your sympathy

I live on my own, I would make that company

I don't need no one, you can keep your sympathy

I live on my own, I would make that company

I'm rough and ready tonight

God help you

God help you

[Outro]

Rough and ready tonight

Rough and ready tonight

Rough and ready tonight

Rough and ready tonight

Rough and ready tonight

Rough and ready tonight

Rough and ready tonight

Rough and ready tonight

Rough and ready tonight...
