Nothin But A Good Time

Nothin But A Good Time
The song title says it all. The lyrics simbolize a part of our lives. POISON felt that from the endless touring, rentless promotion, hard work, determination, and a desire to take our music and our incredible live show to the big stage was finally paying off. Musically, C.C. added life to this riff from a song called ROCK N ROLL BANDIT that Bobby, Rikki abd I wrote together before we met C.C. The song is simple and straight to the point-it is about energy and attitude. This song is, hands down, my favorite to play live.


Not a dime, I can't pay my rent, I can barely make it through the week. Saturday night I'd like to make my girl, But right now I can't make ends meet. I'm always workin', slavin', every day! Gotta get a break from that same old same old! I need a chance just to get away, if you could hear me think, this is what I'd say: chorus Don't need nothin, but a good time! How can I resist? Ain't lookin' for Nothin but a good time! And it don't get better than this. They say I spend my money on women and wine, But I couldn't tell you where I spent last night. I'm real sorry about the shape I'm in, I just like my fun every now and then. I'm always workin, slavin, every day! gotta get a break from this same old same old! I need a chance just to get away. if you could hear me think, this is what I'd say: (chorus) You see I raise a toast to all of us Who are breakin our backs every day. If wantin the good life is such a crime, LORD THEN PUT ME AWAY YEAH! Here's to ya- (Guitar solo then chorus2x)
