paroles de chanson Headknocker - Live at the Rainbow Theatre, London, 4/27/1978 - Foreigner

Hey, I heard London wants to do some headknockin', is that right?
Is this a headknockin' town?
Well, let's do it then

(Alright, everyone, come on, including you)

He drives a '57 coupe
Walks with a stoop
Swears James Dean isn't dead
He's a dedicated rocker
A real headknocker
Don't look at his lady again

'Cause if he catches you messin'
He's gonna teach you a lesson
Don't let me say it again

Headknocker, headknocker
You're comin' on strong, what a showstopper
Headknocker, he might like to fight
But boy does he love to play
Headknocker, headknocker
Headknocker

He's got an old fender strat
Plays behind his back
He sings out Louie, Louie
He's a backseat mauler
A bar room brawler
I think he's gonna blacken your eye
If that don't teach you a lesson
Might show you his Smith & Wesson
Don't let me say it again

Oh, headknocker, headknocker
Comin' on strong what a showstopper
Headknocker, might like to fool around
But baby does he love to play

I know he does (headknocker)
I know he does love to play (headknocker)
Rockin' and rollin' boy, oh, yeah, yeah
Come on baby now, woo, you keep your heads knockin' now (headknocker)

Headknocker, headknocker
You're comin' on strong, what a show stopper
Headknocker
He's a knocker
He don't take no knockin' on her, yeah

You take a look at yourselves, alright
Let's see who's happenin' and who ain't happenin'

These people is happenin'
Yeah, yeah, here's the band, cue the band
Alright
Oh, yeah yeah
Do ya? Well do ya? I do. Do ya?

I think we can break the walls down
I think if we do it, we can break the walls down
I think the walls are shaky in this place
I think the balcony can come down

Right, let Mr. Ed do it

I think what Lou was trying to say is, we just came from around the world
And this is our last stop before we go back to the States
Now, when we get home, one thing we want to do
Is tell 'em what's been happening in good old London town
You see, 'cause I play with three Englishmen here, and they told me this is a rock'n'roll town
Are we gonna make sure that I believe what they told me?

London, do you wanna rock'n'roll?
I said, London, do you wanna rock'n'roll?
I can hear some of you, and I can see most of you
But like Lou said, let's break down these walls, London
You wanna rock'n'roll?
Now, come on London, let's see what we can do to this Rainbow Theatre
Alright

What I wanna do, is I wanna stop my two drummers, and I wanna hear London rockin' and rollin'
You hold on, I'll get them alright

Come on London, you're gonna have to do better than that
Come on, keep the beat now
Hey Bob, can we get the lights turned up once more
So I can just see, if every Englishman and English lady is rockin' and rollin'
I can hear you just a bit
Not on me, I wanna see them
Come on, just one more time, if anybody can hear me, there it is
OK, I can see most of you
I can see in the back and it's really not... You know you're not givin' it to me

Okay, I tell ya what I can do
I bet ya I can get Mick Jones to play some rock guitar here
But only one thing, he wants to hear if you wanna rock'n'roll
What do you think Mick?
Mick Jones, rock guitar

I know you can rock'n'roll buddy

You wanna hear rock'n'roll London?
Come on, let me hear you one more time

Come on, London

Headknocker, headknocker
Comin' on strong, what a showstopper
Headknocker, you bet
Knocker, oh
Rollin', rollin'
Oh, yes
Oh, yeah

London, goodnight

See ya later on this year (thank you and goodnight)
