Rising Power

dog day Tuesday
hope that girl she come today
hard life it's a city life
sweat keep pourin' down
I've got my feet up like to love
through the dawn till I've blown
all I want's her lovin' down
love the way she move around
need no excuse
to let it all hang loose
my body's blown a fuse
rising power
we'll raise the night
rising power
rising power
we'll wake the dead
rising power

you've got a love life up all night
darkest hour at the dead of night
seen her walkin' down the street
the kind of woman that brings on heat
loved her dusk till dawn
come the morning she was gone
took me out to my surprise
money's gone left high and dry
need no excuse
to let it all hang loose
my body's blown a fuse
rising power
we'll raise the night
rising power
rising power
we'll wake the dead
rising power
you'll end up torn to shreds

don't need no excuse
my body's blown a fuse
rising power
we'll raise the night
rising power
rising power
we'll wake the dead
rising power
you'll end up torn to shreds

rise
rise
rise
rising power
the power rise
from you

Nervous Shakedown

freeze said the man cruising the beat
you get your hands up spread your feet
don't you move an inch I heard him say
or you'll be doing time until the judgement day
and he said
don't tell me no lies give me alibis
cause if you cross my path you'll be doing life
it's a dirty lie
it's a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown )
another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
well it's a shakedown ( and it's a nervous shakedown )
we gotta shakedown
another nervous shakedown

it's lookin' like a set-up

take a dime said the man you can make one call
you got a one way ticket to the county hall
when then judge looked high and I looked low
when he smiled at me it was a one man show
he said
2 to 5 the jury decides
double parole if you survive
it's a dirty lie
it's a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown )
another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
well it's a shakedown ( and it's a nervous shakedown )
we gotta shakedown
another nervous shakedown

lord they're gonna get you this time
and throw away the key

it's a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown )
another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
you got a shakedown ( and it's a nervous shakedown )
we gotta shakedown

lord they're gonna get you this time throw away the key

it's a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown )
another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
you got a shakedown ( and it's a nervous shakedown )
well it's a shakedown (another nervous shakedown)

shake it down shake it down (and it's a nervous shakedown )
well it's a shakedown ( another nervous shakedown )
shake it down shake it down ( and it's a nervous shakedown )
it's a shakedown
it's a shakedown
