LYRICS - ROCK AND ROLL NEEDS A KICK IN THE EYE

2. HURRICANE

Driving west down the number one the sun’s insane 
When I came upon my baby in a hurricane
Burning out west that honey buzzing in my head 
I pulled a one-eighty and saw the sun spinning overhead

CHORUS: 
Ooohhhh 

Looking back east when I saw her coming over the hill 
Rushing up like a tidal wave while I’m standing still 
All of sudden she cut me off right as she was coming clear 
And now I’m just receding in her rearview mirror

CHORUS

I chased her south down along the California Coast 
Then we crossed the Texas border into Mexico 
I was all burned out and thirty thousand miles from home 
When I was on my back then she says she’s ready to go 
CHORUS

Girl you’re mine I can’t get enough of you 

CHORUS

Baby don’t know that I’m gonna make it

3. STOP MESSIN MY HEART AROUND

CHORUS:
Stop messing my heart around when you want, when you want 
Stop messing my heart around… 

You’re turning me inside out 
Gonna turn me upside down 
You spin me round and round 
I can’t tell what’s up or down 

Girl stop turning me inside out 
You’re gonna turn me upside down
Girl stop spinning me round and round 
I can’t tell what’s up or down

CHORUS 

You’re messing me up again 
Every day it’s just the same 
I want to leave you and I just can’t 
Always keep on coming back

Girl stop messing me up again 
Cause every day it’s just the same 
I want to leave you and I just can’t 
Always keep on coming back

CHORUS 

You can take me down you can take me right under
 

5. THIRTY MILES

Thirty miles you take off, I catch up 
Eight miles you sneak off, I get ya 
Thirty-eight, you’re back where I met ya 
Didn’t really mean to upset ya 

You took off you think I’ll forget you; 
You walked off saying I don’t respect you 
You’re my girl I got to protect you 
Didn’t really mean to upset you 

CHORUS:
Ro - ound you said I don’t need you around 

Kicked out cause I’ve been drinking 
Pissed you off without even thinking 
Another girl she’s got me winking 
Telling lies and not even blinking 

Anytime your straight I’m fooling 
Turned up the things that needed cooling 
Out nights bruising and cruising 
Didn’t care about what I was doing

CHORUS

It took a long time for you to finally tell me
all those things I really want to hee—ear. 
It took a long time for you to finally tell me 
all those things I really want to hear

CHORUS
