Songs About The Hobby

Recommended Posts

I thought it would make for an interesting thread if everyone contributed lyrics to songs about the hobby. I'll start:

 

Song: Thrills In The Night

Artist: KISS

 

Early morning, and she wakes from her sleep - 9 to 5 is the day that she'll keep; ties her hair up and her blouse buttoned tight - gets her work done, as she waits for the night

 

All the people - tell me what would they say if they knew her; how she hides it away - locked inside is the start of a flame and a feeling that she never will tame

 

Oooh and she's walking around like a mystery; oooh there's a woman that nobody sees, living inside

 

Thrills in the night, far from the light, passion taking over

Prices she pays, all through the day, no one really knows her

 

In the evening, when she takes to the street she goes hunting with a body in heat, and desires she's kept hidden inside make her tingle, and she knows why she lies

 

Oooh and she's walking around like a mystery; oooh there's a woman that nobody sees, living inside

 

Thrills in the night, far from the light, passion taking over

Prices she pays, all through the day, no one really knows her

 

Oooh see the stranger that she's pushing away as she dresses for the start of the day, and desires she's kept hidden inside make her tingle - yeah, she knows why she lies

 

(Repeat chorus)

Nazareth - Red Light Lady

 

Down at the house with the red light

She works from seven til dawn

You'll find her there any time that you like

Some days a week she'll be on

Down at the house with the red light

 

I was a boy not to sure of myself

When I was first taken down

Down to the house with the red light

Two miles west of town

I paid my fee and I went on in

 

Into the house with the red light

Pull up a chair, up the stairs

The key was cold and dampened my hand

Opened the door, heard her say;

Into my room and set yourself down

 

She let us lie on this shiny brass bed

Curtains and flowers in her hair

She played my soul and she shattered my head

Could not believe I was there

Down at the house with the red light

 

I fell in love with that lady

First love I knew, she gave me

Seven days a week, you can find her

Down at the house with the red light

 

I fell in love with that lady

 

 

Great White - Lady Redlight

 

Deep in the night, alone in the dark

I get a need for you

In a hotel room I remember the way

how we do what we do

Too long without your touch

Too long without your love

My lady of lights

I'm coming over for you

 

I call you lover

I call you friend

but when I need another

she's got a heart

a heart to lend

 

Lady Red Light, rock me tonight

Baby's got a way to make it alright

Lady Red Light, rock me tonight

She really knows how to move me

my Lady Red Light

 

A shadow of night waiting in time

Really no need to be cold and alone

I've made up my mind who I need to see

 

I call you lover

I call you friend

but when I need another

she's got a heart

a heart to lend

 

Lady Red Light

She knows how to move me

Candy's Room -- Bruce Springsteen 1978

 

In Candy's room there are pictures of her heroes on the wall

but to get to Candy's room you gotta walk the darkness of Candy's hall

Strangers from the city call my baby's number and they bring her toys

When I come knocking she smiles pretty she knows I wanna be Candy's boy

There's a sadness hidden in that pretty face

A sadness all her own from which no man can keep Candy safe

 

We kiss, my heart's rushes to my brain

The blood rushes in my veins fire rushes towards the sky

We go driving driving deep into the night

I go driving deep into the light in Candy's eyes

 

She says baby if you wanna be wild

you got a lot to learn, close your eyes

Let them melt, let them fire, let them burn

Cause in the darkness there'll be hidden worlds that shine

When I hold Candy close she makes these hidden worlds mine

 

She has fancy clothes and diamond rings

She has men who give her anything she wants but they don't see

That what she wants is me,

oh and I want her so

I'll never let her go, no no no

She knows that I'd give

all that I got to give

All that I want all that I live

to make Candy mine

Tonight

Well it is debatable if this is about the "hobby" or not. I like to think it is and it is one of my favourite sing-along in the car songs. Iggy Pop w/Kate Pierson from the B-52s.

 

"Candy"

 

It's a rainy afternoon

In 1990

The big city geez it's been 20 years-

Candy-you were so fine

 

Beautiful beautiful

Girl from the north

You burned my heart

With a flickering torch

I had a dream that no one else could see

You gave me love for free

 

candy, candy , Candy I can't let you go

All my life you're haunting me

I loved you so

 

Candy, candy , Candy I can't let you go

Life is crazy

Candy baby

 

Yeah, well it hurt me real bad when you left

I'm glad you got out

But I miss you

I've had a hole in my heart

For so long

I've learned to fake it and

Just smile along

 

Down on the street

Those men are all the same

I need a love

Not games

Not games

 

 

Candy, Candy, Candy I can't let you go

All my life you're haunting me

I loved you so

Candy, Candy , Candy I can't let you go

Life is crazy

I Know baby

Candy baby

 

UOU UOU UOU

Candy, Candy, Candy I can't let you go

All my life you're haunting me

I loved you so

 

CANDY CANDY CANDY

life is crazy

candy baby

 

candy baby,

candy, candy

Even as a Teen it could have beeb predicted that I was destined for the Hobby ...

 

 

 

Ah Keep your eyes on the road,

Your hands upon the wheel.

Keep your eyes on the road

Your hands upon the wheel.

Yeah, we're going to the roadhouse,

Gonna have a real good-time.

 

Yeah, the back of the roadhouse,

They've got some bungalows.

Yeah, the back of the roadhouse,

They've got some bungalows.

 

They dance for the people

Who like to go down slow.

 

Let it roll, baby, roll.

Let it roll, baby, roll.

Let it roll, baby, roll.

Let it roll, all night long.

 

Do it, Robby, Do it!

 

You gotta roll, roll, roll,

You gotta thrill my soul, alright.

Roll, roll, roll, roll-a

Thrill my soul.

 

*improv*

 

Ashen-Lady.

Ashen-Lady.

Give up your vows.

Give up your vows.

Save our city.

Save our city.

Ah, right now.

 

Well, I woke up this morning

And I got myself a beer.

Well, I woke up this morning

And I got myself a beer.

 

The future's uncertain

And the end is always near.

 

Let it roll, baby, roll.

Let it roll, baby, roll.

Let it roll, baby, roll.

Let it roll, all night long.

Bryan Adams

Reckless (1984)

One Night Love Affair

 

You're the silent type

And you caught my eye

But I never thought that I'd be touchin' you

How was I to know

I'd let my feelin's go

And that I'd be yours before the night was through

 

One night love affair

Tryin' to make like we don't care

We were both reachin' out for somethin'

 

One night love affair

Pretendin' it ain't there

Oh - and now we're left with nothin'

 

When the mornin' breaks

We go our separate ways

If the night was made for love it ain't for keeps

 

But I lose control

As I watch you go

All my senses say I'm in this much too deep

Now you're outa reach

 

One night love affair

Tryin' to make like we don't care

We were both reachin' out for somethin'

 

One night love affair

Pretendin' we don't care

Oh - and now we're left with nothin'

 

Solo

 

One night love affair

Trying' to make like we don't care

We were both reachin' out for somethin'

 

One night love affair

Sometimes life ain't fair

Oh - and not we're left with nothin'

This was my theme song for a Fav/Reg Sp I had for a long time (see different thread)

 

Bryan Adams

Live! Live! Live! (1995)

Run To You

 

She says her love for me could never die

But that'd change if she ever found out about you and I

 

Oh - but her love is cold

It wouldn't hurt her if she didn't know, 'cause...

 

When it gets too much

I need to feel your touch

 

I'm gonna run to you

I'm gonna run to you

Cause when the feelin's right I'm gonna run all night

I'm gonna run to you

She's got a heart of gold she'd never let me down

But you're the one that always turns me on

You keep me comin' 'round

 

I know her love is true

But it's so damn easy makin' love to you

 

I got my mind made up

I need to feel your touch

 

I'm gonna run to you

Ya - I'm gonna run to you

Cause when the feelin's right I'm gonna stay all night

 

I'm gonna run to you

Ya - I'm gonna run to you

Oh when the feelin's right I'm gonna run all night

I'm gonna run to you

Well since you are on a Bryan Adams kick, I was going to say I used to think the "Summer of '69" was about the hobby, and then I listened to the words. hehehe

Roxanne by the Police

 

Roxanne

you don't have to put on the red light

those days are over

you don't have to sell you body to the night

 

Roxanne

you don't have to wear that dress tonight

walk the streets for money

you don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

 

Roxanne

You don't have to put on the red light

 

I loved you since I knew you

I wouldn't talk down to you

I have to tell you just how I feel

I won't share you with another boy

I know my mind is made up

so put away your makeup

told you once I won't tell you again

 

It's a bad way

Roxanne

you don't have to put on the red light

Roxanne

you don't have to put on the red light

still cant really decide if this is about a SP or just a gold-digger, LOL

 

Shakin Hands: Nickelback

 

She had her eyes on the prize as the girl next door

You grow up quick when you grow up poor

It?s the only way to LA that she knows

The Hollywood pose teeth, tits, and drawers

It didn?t take her long to leave the boulevard

So many Five Star friends with black credit cards

She?d try anything once

Cause anything goes

It never comes easy when you?re digging for gold

 

 

Well she ain?t no Cinderella

When she?s getting undressed

?Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west

 

 

Far too pretty to be giving it cheap

That?s why she?s making six figures working three days a week

Yeah she?d even break a promise in the promise-land

She didn?t make it this far by just shakin? hands

She?d take your money make it twice as hot as anyone can

She didn?t make it this far by just shakin? hands

 

 

I doubt she?d even let the devil buy her little black book

City Hall would probably fall off if anyone got a look

Every A list player is a favorite friend

Says they all taste the same in the back of a vans

A congressman would call her every once in a while

Got the school girl skirt on the top of the pile

She?d done everyone once

And everyone knows

You got to get a little dirty when you?re digging for gold

 

 

Well she ain?t no Cinderella

When she?s getting undressed

?Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west

 

 

 

Far to pretty to be giving it cheap

That?s why she?s making six figures working three days a week

Yeah she?d even break a promise in the promise-land

She didn?t make it this far by just shakin? hands

She?d take your money make it twice is hot as anyone can

She didn?t make it this far by just shakin? hands

 

 

Well someone spilled the beans and now her name?s in the press

Tough to keep it all a secret when you?re one of the best

The judge is going easy because he paid for her chest

Yeah he loves his naughty wicked witch of the west

Well she ain?t no Cinderella

When she?s getting undressed

?Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west

 

 

 

Far to pretty to be giving it cheap

That?s why she?s making six figures working three days a week

Yeah she?d even break a promise in the promise-land

She didn?t make it this far by just shakin? hands

 

 

 

She?d take your money make it twice is hot as anyone can

She didn?t make it this far by just shakin? hands

I've always thought this was about an SP...don't know why...

 

"Figured You Out" (Nickelback)

 

I like your pants around your feet

And I like the dirt that's on your knees

And I like the way you still say please

While you're looking up at me

You're like my favourite damn disease

 

And I love the places that we go

And I love the people that you know

And I love the way you can't say no

Too many long lines in a row

I love the powder on your nose

 

And now I know who you are

It wasn't that hard, just to figure you out

(Now I did, you wonder why)

And now I know who you are

It wasn't that hard, just to figure you out

(Now I did, you wonder why)

 

I like the freckles on your chest

And I like the way you like me best

And I like the way you're not impressed

While you put me to the test

I like the white stains on your dress

 

And I love the way you pass the check

And I love the good times that you wreck

And I love your lack of self-respect

While you passed out on the deck

I love my hands around your neck

 

And now I know who you are

It wasn't that hard, just to figure you out

(Now I did, you wonder why)

And now I know who you are

It wasn't that hard, just to figure you out

(Now I did, you wonder why)

(Why not before, you never tried)

(Gone for good, and this is it)

 

I like your pants around your feet

And I like the dirt that's on your knees

And I like the way you still say please

While you're looking up at me

You're like my favourite damn disease

 

And I hate the places that we go

And I hate the people that you know

And I hate the way you can't say no

Too many long lines in a row

I hate the powder on your nose

 

And now I know who you are

It wasn't that hard, just to figure you out

(Now I did, you wonder why)

And now I know who you are

It wasn't that hard, just to figure you out

(Now I did, you wonder why)

(Why not before, you never tried)

(Gone for good, and this is it)
