Live Alive Quo

Status Quo Live Alive Quo Lyrics
1.Burning Bridges

( rossi / bown )

Building dreams has always been my way
Making time and living for the day
Burning bridges never made me cry
I could walk away with no goodbye
Easy take or easy leave them all
'til you scratch the writing on the wall

It's on and off and on again
Going on and then
Taking all i got again
Bleeding me leaving me dry
You're hanging on for what you can
Dragging out the pain
Taking all i give again
Fakin it making me cry

One day someday i may slide away
Turn around and call it all a day
Even though i fooled myself for years
I can't escape this ringing in my ears

It's on and off and on again
Going on and then
Taking all i got again
Bleeding me leaving me dry
You're hanging on for what you can
Dragging out the pain
Taking all i give again
Fakin it making me cry


2.Caroline

( rossi / young )

If you want to turn me onto
Anything you really want to
Turn me onto your love sweet love

If the night-time is the right time
Anytime of yours is my time
We can find time for love sweet love

Come on sweet caroline
You're my sweet caroline
You know i want to take you
I've really got to make you
Come on sweet caroline
Take my hand together we can rock-n-roll

When i'm thinking of you sleeping
I'm at home alone and weeping
Are you keeping your love sweet love

Do you still care when i'm not there
Do you really wish i was there
Can i come there for love sweet love

Come on sweet caroline
You're my sweet caroline
You know i want to take you
I've really got to make you
Come on sweet caroline
Take my hand together we can rock-n-roll


3.Don't Drive My Car

( parfitt / bown )

Ah ah ah ah, don't drive my car
I'm just a boy, my favourite toy
And i'm telling you woman
Don't push me too far
I'm telling you straight, don't drive my car

Ah ah ah ah, don't drive my car
Stay where you are, stay where you are
'cos i'm telling you woman
Now don't you push me too far
I'm telling you straight, don't drive my car

And i'm telling you woman
Now don't you push me too far
I'm telling you straight, don't drive my car

And i'm telling you woman
Now don't you push me too far
I'm telling you straight, don't drive my car


4.Hold You Back

( rossi / young / parfitt )

How d'you know the music
When you don't know the score
Do you think that you can make it
When you don't need no more
Is it really the reason
When it is not a need
Are you trying hard to write it
Before you can read

Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Slow you down, you've gotta try

Does the clock that you're watching
Ever tell you 'bout the time
Does the song that you're singing
Sound to you like a rhyme
Will there be an answer
When you stop askin why
Or because of the jigsaw that makes up a lie

Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Slow you down, you've gotta try

How d'you know the music
When you don't know the score
Do you think that you can make it
When you don't need no more
Is it really the reason
When it is not a need
Are you trying hard to write it
Before you can read

Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Slow you down, you've gotta try

Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Hold you back, hold you back, slow you down
Slow you down
Hold you back hold you back slow you down


5.In The Army Now

a vacation in a forreign land
Uncle sam does the best he can
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Now you remember what the draftman said
Nothing to do all day but stay in bed
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

You be the hero of thw neiborhood
Nobody knows that you left for good
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Smiling faces as you wait to land
But once you get there no one gives a damn
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Hand grenades flying over your head
Missiles flying over your head
If you want to survive get out of bed
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Shots ring out in the dad of night
The sergant calls (stand up and fight)
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

You've got your orders better shoot on sight
Your finger's on the trigger
But it don't seem right
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Night is falling and you just can't see
Is this illusion or reality
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Oh, oh, you're in the army now


6.Little Lady

( parfitt )

Well i saw my little lady
Walking down the street
And i asked her where you going to
Well i saw my little lady
Walking down the street
She said she'd found somebody new
Found myself all alone
Ain't no fun on your own
Now i'm like a rolling stone

So i made another lady
And so many more
Didn't really know wich way to go
So i made another lady
And so many more
But no-one did i get to know
Found myself all alone
Ain't no fun on your own
Now i'm like a rolling stone

Then i saw my little lady
Walking down the street
Didn't know where she was going to
So i told my little lady
Walking down the street
Now you know what i've been going through
Found herself all alone
Ain't no fun on your own
Living like a rolling stone

I was like a rolling
I was like a rolling stone

8.Whatever You Want

( parfitt / bown )

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whatever you say
You pay your money
You take your choise
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose

You're showing of
You're showing out
You look for trouble
Turn around, give me a shout
I take it all
You squeeze me dry
And now today
You couldn't even say goodbye

I could take you home
On the midnight train again
I could make an offer you can't refuse

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whatever you say
You pay your money
You take your choise
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose

You're showing of
You're showing out
You look for trouble
Turn around, give me a shout
I take it all
You squeeze me dry
And now today
You couldn't even say goodbye

I could take you home
On the midnight train again
I could make an offer you can't refuse

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whatever you say
You pay your money
You take your choise
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose

Whatever you want
