The Ballad of Buck-0-Five
Buck-0-Five that Friday night
So alive, the world was right
You could feel 'em
Chasin' a dream
Maggie & Sally let 'em down
Rock & roll girls, nowhere to be found
Most folks ain't what they seem
We've all got shackles and chains
Lookin' for love and someone to blame
Wanna be free as a bird, now how 'bout you
(Hey!) Open up that door
(Ho!) There's so much more
(Hey!) What're you waitin' for?
(Ho!) Let's go!
Andy's trying to drain his brain
Page's car went up in flames
And I just need some time to think
Cletis ain't no country star
Garth's stuck in the trailer park
Better get me another drink
We've all got shackles and chains
Lookin' for love and someone to blame
Overwhelmed by indifference and the promise of an early bed
(Hey!) Open up that door
(Ho!) There's so much more
(Hey!) What're you waitin' for?
(Ho!) Let's go!
Buck-0-Five that Friday night
So alive, the world was right
Just refuse – those shattered dreams
Years later, they're still knockin'
No one answers, they keep rockin'
They don't care what it means
We've all got shackles and chains
Lookin' for love and someone to blame
It's a long way to the top if you want to rock & roll
(Hey!) Open up that door
(Ho!) There's so much more
(Hey!) What're you waitin' for?
(Ho!) Let's go!
So alive, the world was right
You could feel 'em
Chasin' a dream
Maggie & Sally let 'em down
Rock & roll girls, nowhere to be found
Most folks ain't what they seem
We've all got shackles and chains
Lookin' for love and someone to blame
Wanna be free as a bird, now how 'bout you
(Hey!) Open up that door
(Ho!) There's so much more
(Hey!) What're you waitin' for?
(Ho!) Let's go!
Andy's trying to drain his brain
Page's car went up in flames
And I just need some time to think
Cletis ain't no country star
Garth's stuck in the trailer park
Better get me another drink
We've all got shackles and chains
Lookin' for love and someone to blame
Overwhelmed by indifference and the promise of an early bed
(Hey!) Open up that door
(Ho!) There's so much more
(Hey!) What're you waitin' for?
(Ho!) Let's go!
Buck-0-Five that Friday night
So alive, the world was right
Just refuse – those shattered dreams
Years later, they're still knockin'
No one answers, they keep rockin'
They don't care what it means

Lookin' for love and someone to blame

(Hey!) Open up that door
(Ho!) There's so much more
(Hey!) What're you waitin' for?
(Ho!) Let's go!
