get ready to roll

play it low in the pocket

something's just got to break

you've been waiting so long for success

it's a shame it's gonna come too late

baby

fly like a rocket

shoot it out in stages from the mother ship

it's too bad you gotta lose

what you had

but when you cruise

you gotta shoot it from the hip

aw

you give 'em all the slip

and it's too bad

hear they got you shooting

with a crooked cue

mmm

somebody really got it in for you

when the night runs down all over town

and everybody's lost control

get ready to roll

get ready to roll

play it high on the hip

something's just gotta give

hold that thirty-eight ready

'til she really looks steady

then just let her rip

put some powder in your eyes

just before that contact's made

how it must hurt to pervert

when the curtain can't hide

from that fire in your eyes

but is it really a surprise

and it's too bad

hear they got you shooting

with a crooked cue

mmm

somebody really got it in for you

when the night runs down all over town

and everybody's lost control

get ready to roll

get ready to roll

get ready to roll
