Okay lets talk 80's/90's Hair bands. Bon jovi in particular. Dead or Alive, I'll never forget the first time I REALLY heard this song . I was 14 selling Meth tramping everywhere, already well on the road of gypsy life.. This song has been a flashback song for me ever since. When I was 25 I really got back into all the shit music I grew up to Bon Jovi is to this day one of my favorites. I FUCKING LOVE BON JOVI!! if you laugh at this I get to have sex with you.
More recently I met someone very fucking cool who has an affinity for the hair bands like I do, and it was so cool to hear this song flashback and yet make a new memory of it singing it in the truck at the top of our lungs while going to a cycle shop. Rock the fuck on.
It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems we're wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd drive all night just to get back home
[Chorus:]
I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
I'm a cowboy
Wanted dead or alive
Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days
And the people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're alone all you do is think
[Chorus]
I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere, and I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces an I've rocked them all
I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side
I'm wanted dead or alive
And I ride, dead or alive
I still drive, dead or alive
Dead or alive [x4]
