Nighthawk (Vampire Blues) Lyrics

Gypsy woman told me
I've got to walk the night
Like a fallen angel,
I'm blinded by the light.
I need to find a love child,
Who never did no wrong.
A superstitious woman
To love me all night long.

Let me love you.

My heart beats like a hammer,
I'm scared of being alone,
I never thought I'd see the day
I'd curse when I was born.
Caught up in a fever, running hot 'n cold,
I need a sweet young woman
To satisfy my soul.

Let me love you.

Nighthawk, nighthawk
Shadow of the light,
A loner in the city streets
Crying in the night.
Nighthawk, nighthawk
Howling at the sky,
When the moon is on the rise
You'll hear the nighthawk cry.

Let me love you, let me love you.

(Solo)

Let me love you, let me love you, let me love you.

Gypsy woman told em
I've got to walk the night,
Like a fallen angel
I'm blinded by the light.
Caught up in a fever running hot 'n' cold,
Need a sweet young woman to satisfy my soul.

Let me love you.

Nighthawk, nighthawk
Shadow of the light,
A loner in the city streets
Crying in the night.
Nighthawk, nighthawk
Howling at the sky,
When the moon is on the rise
You'll hear the nighthawk cry.

Let me love you...

Now you're gone Lyrics

(Coverdale/Vandenberg)

Now you're gone
I can feel my heart is breaking,
An' I can't go on
When I think of the love that you've taken

In the night I pray for your embrace,
Every time I close my eyes
I can't escape your face
You're out of sight,
But, always on my mind,
I never realised
My love could be so blind

You're all I want,
Can't you feel the love
In this heart of mine
You're all I need,
So maybe we could turn back
The hands of time,
Maybe we could give it another try
One more time

But, now you're gone
There's an emptiness closing around me,
An' I can't go on
When all I have left is the memory

In the night I call out your name,
I wake up in a cold sweat
An' I'm all alone again
I need your love
Much more than I can say,
I realise without you
I can't face another day

You're all I want,
Can't you feel the love
In this heart of mine
You're all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
I've been losing my mind
You're all that I want,
So maybe we could turn back
The hands of time,
Maybe we could give it
Another try
One more time,
Baby, just one more time

Now you're gone
I can feel my heart is breaking,
An I can't go on
When all of my love has been taken

You're all I want,
Can't you feel the love
In this heart of mine
You're all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
I've been losing my mind

You're all I want,
Can't you feel the love
In this heart of mine
You're all that I need,
Since I lost you, girl,
I've been losing my mind...

Only My Soul Lyrics

Only my soul, stops me crying,
Wondering why I feel alone.
And only my love keeps me from
Weeping, so bad,
Giving me strength, to carry on.

Lead me on thro' restless waters,
Walk with me along the way.
Live the moment, and tomorrow.
For the Lord will take it all
On judgement day.

Broken dreams lay all around me,
Sad eyed children of despair.
Whispered voices in the distance
Call me on to who knows where.

Lead me on thro' restless waters,
Walk with me along the way.
Live the moment, and tomorrow.
'Cos the Lord will take it all on judgement day,
And the Lord will take it all on judgement day.

Hear me crying out for love.
Hear me crying out for love.
I'll never let you know it,
I can only show it in my song.

Only my soul.

(Solo)

Hear me crying out for love.
Hear me crying out for love.
I'll never let you know it,
I can only show it in my song.
Only my soul...

Outlaw Lyrics

(Coverdale/Lord/Marsden)

When I left my home
I was not much more than a child,
My mother started crying
She knew that I was born to be wild

'Cos I was looking for the bright lights of the big city,
A red hot town where the girls are pretty

I took to the highway,
Chasing my dream down the line
Heading out for trouble,
Never finding my peace of mind
'Cos I been run out of town so many times before
An' usually kind of places where I can't go back no more

Outlaw - born outside of the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will always take chances for fun

I never find it easy trying to keep the feeling alive,
I've always been a dreamer,
Dreamers find it hard to survive
When they're living in the bright lights of the big city,
A red hot town where the girls are pretty

Outlaw - born outside of the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will always take chances for fun
Outlaw - born outside of the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will always take chances for fun

Outlaw - born outside of the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will always take chances for fun
Born outside of the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will always take chances for fun
Outlaw, outlaw,
Man on the run will always take chances for fun

Playing your game Lyrics

(Coverdale/Moody/Young)

Never wrote a single word I didn't want to say
So glad I got to know you better today
I never wrote a single word I didn't want to say
I want to see you tomorrow
If that's OK, that's OK

I've seen a lot of everything I didn't want to know
Somebody's dying all the time
I've seen a lot of everything I didn't want to know
Want to live tomorrow to come and go, you know, come and go

I'm playing your game
And feeling just the same
Oh I'm just your fool around, I'm just your fool around
But I don't get you down

Am I gonna see you when the lights have all gone down?
Will I hear you calling out my name?
Am I gonna see you when the lights have all gone down?
Wanna hear you say it

I played your game
This ain't your game...

Queen Of Hearts Lyrics

She was the keeper of all my reason,
Possessor of all I owned,
She kept me on the edge of darkness
With words as cold as stone.
Then you came along,
Your eyes were flashing with desire,
Oh babe, you got me burning, so much
You got my soul on fire.

Honey, you move me,
You got me so I can't sleep at night,
You tell me you believe in me,
And you say you're gonna treat me right.

You gave me the answer,
I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy roller,
They say that love's a gamble,
But, I got the Queen of Hearts.

If I could touch the crystal silence
That we have after making love,
Just to tell you I need you here
In the glow of the stars above.

If you ever leave, or deceive,
Or fool around,
You could be right,
You could be wrong,
But, woman, I know I'll miss you
When you're gone.

Honey, you move me,
Like the wind thro' a willow tree.
Ain't no doubt about it, baby,
You make the blindman see.

You gave me the answer,
I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy Roller,
They say that love's a gamble,
But, I got the Queen of Hearts.

You drive me crazy when you walk,
Crazy when you talk,
Crazy when you walk with me.

You gave me the answer,
I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy roller,
Gonna tell you, holy roller,
You're the Queen of Hearts.

(Solo)

You gave me the answer,
I knew right from the start.
I'm gonna tell you, holy roller,
You're the Queen of Hearts...

Ready an' willing Lyrics

(Coverdale/Lord/Moody/Murray/Paice)

I wanna be loved,
Don't wanna be teased.
I don't want no woman
Getting down on her knees.

I'm ready an' willing
To reach for the sun,
So I can get me some loving
Before I'm gone.

I want more, more, more, more,
I want some more
Sweet satisfaction to soothe my soul.

I want you to rock me
All night long.
Rope an' ride me, baby,
Do me wrong.

Roll me over, make be bleed,
I'd dance with the devil
To get what I need.
I need more, more, more, more,
I need some more of that
Sweet satisfaction to soothe my soul.

I get this crazy feeling inside my soul,
And it's driving me insane.
I get this crazy feeling,
Can you feel it, baby,
It's driving me out of my mind.
I'm talking about sweet satisfaction,
I'm ready an' willing, sweet satisfaction.
I'm ready an' willing, sweet satisfaction.
Sweet satisfaction, sweet satisfaction.
I'm ready an' willing.

I get this crazy feeling inside my soul,
And it's driving me insane.
I get this crazy feeling,
Can you feel it, baby,
It's driving me out of my mind.
I keep on looking for

Sweet satisfaction, I'm ready an' willing.
Sweet satisfaction, I'm ready an' willing.
Sweet satisfaction, I keep on looking.
Sweet satisfaction, I keep on looking...

Restless heart Lyrics

(Coverdale/Vandenberg)

Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting,
My precious time.

There are times in my life,
I don't know witch way to turn,
When everything I touch
I get my fingers burned...
Dreams to ashes, ashes to dust,
When all that glitters
Is dull with rust...

Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting,
My precious time...

I'm torn and tattered,
Shattered and worn,
I've had enough
Trying to live my life
In the eye of the storm...
Every heartache
Leaves a scar on my face,
Somebody reach out
Or throw me a line,
Get me out of this place...

Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting, wasting,
My precious time...

Oh, so tired.

Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting,
My precious time...

Restless heart, restless mind,
I'm tired of wasting, wasting,
All of my precious time...

Restless heart, restless mind,
So I'm tired of wasting, wasting,
All of my precious time, time, time

Restless heart...

Rock an' roll angels Lyrics

(Coverdale/Moody)

I'm goin' looking for a woman
With the night in her eyes,
Someone to take all the small talk
And laugh at the lies
A high heeled double trouble backstage queen,
Who gets what she wants
And knows where she's been

Alright show your hand,
I'm looking for the promise of a one night stand
So I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight

You can see in my face
Just what I'm hoping to find,
I want a twelve bar beauty
With a one track mind
I don't drive babe, but, I can steer,
We got the green light let's get out of here

Alright show your hand,
I'm looking for the promise of a one night stand
So I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight,
I said I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight

When I saw you across the floor,
I could feel I wanted more
I get lonely in the night,
I would do anything, anything you say,
Do anything to take the pain away
So those lonely nights will be alright,
Don't worry honey, we can put out the light
I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight,
I said I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight

So I'm looking for a woman who got no shame,
'Cos in the morning there'll be no one to blame.
A high heeled double trouble backstage queen,
Who gets what she wants and knows where she's been.

Alright show your hand,
I'm looking for the promise of a one night stand
So I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight,
I said I'm going looking for those rock 'n' roll women tonight

Rock 'n' roll women, rock 'n' roll women,
Rock 'n' roll women gonna steal my heart away
Rock 'n' roll women, I said rock 'n' roll women,
I said rock 'n' roll women gonna steal my heart away

Rock 'n' roll women...

Talkin' 'bout rock 'n' roll women, rock 'n' roll women,
Rock 'n' roll women gonna steal my heart away
Rock 'n' roll women, rock 'n' roll women,
I said rock 'n' roll women gonna steal my heart away...

Rough an' ready Lyrics

(Coverdale/Moody)

I take what I want
An' I steal anything that I need,
I would do anything
To get my satisfaction guaranteed

'Cos I'm looking for love,
The time has come
I'm looking for love,
An' I mean to get me some
I'm looking for love right now,
An' I'm rough an' ready

All of you woman better
Lift up your skirts an' run,
'Cos I aim to shoot my pistol
An' fire like a Gatlin gun

'Cos I'm looking for love,
Believe me when I say
I'm looking for love,
In the worst kind of way
I'm looking for love right now
An' I'm rough an' ready

Rough an' ready...

Rough an' ready...

I take what I want
An' I steal anything that I need,
I would do anything
To get my satisfaction guaranteed

'Cos I'm looking for love,
The time has come
I'm looking for love,
An' I mean to get me some
I'm looking for love right now,
An' I'm rough an' ready

Rough an' ready...
