Shake Down Lyrics

Rock, rock, never stop, take your pa*sion to the top
Rock, rock, never stop, don’t stop, don’t drop

The strangers in the darkness, this pa*sion for the fight
An obsession finds it burning with a fire in the night
I see that girl, she’s coming, she’s walking soft and slow
Says she’s gonna take me, but I don’t know where’d she go

Once you left, you’ll know who answers
You will walk a lonesome mile
I’m prepared to take my chances, I’m prepared to change my style

Oh ho ho Shake it down again
Oh ho ho We’re goin’ down again
(Rock, rock, never stop, don’t stop, don’t drop)

I’m sitting in the bedroom, and I’m feeling awful strange
I see it in their faces everyone I meet
I feel her arms around me, I feel it in my blood
And I swear I’m on the battle, she’s lying and figured out

When you save your reputation, when you got no more to give
She can be my inspiration, she can be my will to live

Oh ho ho Shake me down again, take me down
Oh ho ho Take me down again
Oh ho ho Shake me down again, do it to me all night
Oh ho ho We’re goin’ down again, yeah

Aaaahh! (guitar solo)

Rock, rock, never stop, take your pa*sion to the top
All right, (all right) all right...WOO!
Rock, rock, never stop, take your pa*sion, shoot your shot
Come on now, baby!

Oh ho ho Shake me down again, shake me downtown
Oh ho ho We’re goin’ down again
Oh ho ho Shake me down again, ooh shake me down again
Oh ho ho We’re goin’ down again, ooh-woo
Oh ho ho Shake me down again
