Whisky Women and Wild Solos - Donnie Takanawa

HEY! HEY! HEY! Sunset glow on a black Trans Am Cigarette burning in my left hand Radio screaming like a runaway train Half tank left and a head full of rain Downtown neon drippin’ on the hood Every bad decision lookin’ pretty damn good Bartender wink says “Donnie, where ya been?” I said “Workin’ floors and committing sins” Every night gets louder Every shot burns slow Every broken heart in this town Needs one more guitar solo WHISKEY WOMEN & WILD SOLOS! Crank it louder till the whole bar explodes! Lipstick kisses and a Marshall stack Once you live this life You ain’t goin’ back! WHISKEY WOMEN & WILD SOLOS! Fast love burnin’ on a dead-end road! Chrome hearts beatin’ underneath the neon glow We were born for the night And the wild guitar solos! Leopard-print boots on a dirty wood floor She danced like danger through the side bar door Hair sprayed high like a midnight flame And every guy inside forgot his name She climbed beside me in the carpet van Said “Donnie, play me something badass again” I hit the gas and the tape deck screamed Like Hollywood crashed into a fever dream Every dive bar preacher Every backstage queen Everybody’s lookin’ for salvation In a guitar machine WHISKEY WOMEN & WILD SOLOS! Crank it louder till the sunrise glows! Purple neon drippin’ down the avenue Everybody wants forever But tonight will do! WHISKEY WOMEN & WILD SOLOS! Raise your glass while the feedback rolls! We were kings for a moment In the smoke and the glow Livin’ wide open For the wild guitar solos! Maybe we were reckless Maybe we were fools But nobody remembers The nights we played it cool No… They remember the noise The heartbreak The lights And the solos that sounded like freedom WHISKEY WOMEN & WILD SOLOS! One more night before the whole thing blows! Raise your lighter to the Buckeye sky Tonight we live forever Tomorrow we die! WHISKEY WOMEN & WILD SOLOS! Turn it up until the speakers smoke! Leather jackets Broken hearts And nowhere left to go! WHISKEY WOMEN… AND WILD SOLOS!
