Rough And Ready

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well, you're brought up on the street

Did ya make it on your own

Are ya living in the shadow

Crawling in the night

Sleeping in the subway

Beggin' for a fight

Makes ya grow up hard, boy

Aren't you ready for a fight

I don't need no one

You can keep you sympathy

I live on my own

I would make that company

I don't need no one

You can keep you sympathy

I live on my own

I would make that company

I'm rough and ready tonight

Crawling in the night

Standing on the corner

Asked ya for smoke

I kick you in the deep, boy

Steel away you girl

Talked into a night fight

They cut me to the bone

Don't ya mess with me, boy

Ya better leave me alone

I would make that company

I don't need no one

You can keep you sympathy

I live on my own

I would make that company

I don't need no one

You can keep you sympathy

I live on my own

I would make that company

I'm rough and ready tonight

Maybe seeing a call girl

I'll take ya for a ride

The cops will never break me

Steal away my pride

If you're looking for a good time

And ya wanna ride with me

And you're feeling rough and ready

Rough and ready with me

You can change my life

You can read my mind

I don't want no one

I don't have no one

I don't need no one

You can keep your sympathy

Well, you're brought up on the street

Did ya make it on your own

Sleeping in the subway

Begging for a fight

Makes ya grow up hard, boy

Ain't you ready for a fight

I don't need no one

You can keep you sympathy

I live on my own

I don't need no one

You can keep you sympathy

I live on my own

I would make that company

I'm rough and ready tonight

Rough and ready tonight

[Repeat to end]
