Rough & Tumble Waite, John Woke up from a bad dream To the world was burning down I didn't know where I was I didn't know which town You gotta live through this hard life And get it right at first tryin' See it's a mean place for our love to live I'm afraid you're still mine And we can make it through somehow If we hold tight and stay true When the game gets rough We can play rough too It's gonna take The National Guard To keep us apart When things get hard Rough and tumble with me! Rough and tumble, baby... yeah! There are people out there waiting With a handshake for a smile They'll take what they get from us They got no truth and no style But we'll make it through somehow If we hold tight and stay true It's a dangerous game But you got me and I got you Cos love's the good thing That we got When the world gets cold We're still hot Rough and tumble with me! Rough and tumble, baby, it's alright [Solo] Cos love's such a good thing, baby And we've got a lot When the world cools down We'll still be hot It's gonna take The National Guard To keep us apart When things get hard Rough and tumble with me And we'll make it, baby Rough and tumble with me It's a hard world Rough and tumble with me, yeah Be my girl... yeah! Rough and tumble... Free from mine! Yeah! Rough and tumble, baby
