There’s a saying that goes…Everybody knows
And that French speaking say…Every day
It’s the kinda speech…When you meet and greet
A friend who’s coming here…Or going there
How’s it goin with you, every single day?...”It goes OK”
Are you hangin around, or ya gonna leave?...Headed for the trees”
What’s she gonna think, when you’re not there?...”Tears in her hair”
We’ll just have to stop, to wait and see…”You hear me?”
You say “CA VA”…and I know
That everything is good to go
I’ll meet you late…We’ll kiss and then
And you will say “CA VA” again!
She has beautiful skin…That she’s comfortable in
She is so unaware …when others stare
Her red lips could quench a thousand glasses
She is so much more than Boobs & Asses!
We’ll meet up at that place…just around 10…”I’ll see you then”
Then we’ll be making love…Like a Wolff in Love…”All night long”
I see in your eyes, a love that burns bright…”Outa sight”
I’ll remember this night, for the rest of my life…”I Love You”
You say “CA VA”, and I know
That everything is good to go
I’ll meet you late, we’ll kiss and then
And you will say “CA VA” again!
A NEW HIDEAWAY
(S. Rodgers, DC Snyder)
I got my 6 string…a Rocker by trade
I blow up the clubs… each night up on stage
And scream through the tears… through all those years
You left me on my own
I just keep lyin’ upon my bed
I just keep thinkin’… what you said
“My love for you, and all that you do is dead!”
I’m rollin’ down the road… I’m on my way
To A New Hideaway
Lookin’ out to a Rock & Roll Dream
That I can see… It’s waitin’ for me
You came along
And you slapped me upside the head
I was all wrong
I love you once again…Yeah!
I wake up late… to prep for the show
Can’t let them down… the Fans don’t you know
Will stand in the rain
Just to feel your pain…tonight
I just keep Slamin’ the songs real loud
Just keep on Prancin’ in front of the crowd
And then give them just what…they’ve been waitin’ for!
I’m rollin’ down the road…I’m on my way
To A New Hideaway
Lookin’ out to a Rock and Roll Dream
That I can see… It’s waitin’ for me
You came along… and you smile’d at me instead
I was all wrong
We’ll be together again…Yeah
She’s lookin’ pretty… right for me
With her eyes so Brown
She’s gonna do it… And laugh out loud
She’ll cry and act
Like she wants me back!
I’m rollin’ down the road… I’m on my way
To A New Hideaway
Lookin’ out to a Rock and Roll Dream
That I can see… It’s waitin’ for me
You came along
Now we’re back together
I was all wrong
You and I belong
I love you once again… Yeah!
GLOBAL WARMING
(S. Rodgers, DC Snyder)
You are my good friend, I really love you
There are very few…Just like you
If I need some time to talk
You are always there for me
Worry it’s getting hotter, every day now
It feels like the Sun, so close to our home
I really think that GLOBAL WARMING
Is oh so true!
There are lots of us here… who really care
The future of our children, will depend on us
Now it’s up to me, its up to you…to make it true
We’re organizing… We’re writing letters
Workin’ hard to get the word out
We’ve got to save our Planet
If we want to survive!
We will do a campaign , in all Media
In order to open people’s eyes
And that way, we will show that the message
Is for All to know
When you feel it out there… and you really care
The future of our children, will depend on us
It’s up to me, it’s up to you… to make it true
We love our Planet
We want to make it last
So tell all your friends… and all your people
To Act! Yeah!
In this day and age… Yes it’s our turn
There’s always something , that’s new to learn
And Modern Science… just might save our butts this time
Our love for our Planet
We all want…to make it last
So all people’s…of this world will start
To Act!
We love our Planet
We want to make it last
So tell your friends and… all your people
To Act!
And we sing Hallelujah
And we all look high up above
Clear skies, with no surprise
To see Heaven… In your eyes
SUMMER DREAM
(S. Rodgers, DC Snyder)
You really caught me in a Summer Dream
It’s the kinda feelin you hope is real
My eyes are closed but…my mind is open
And wandering free
It’s takin me back to a beautiful place
Where people slumber as the Ocean escapes
I like to be there…It’s where I met you
And forever more!
I can think of so many things
Sandy Beaches upon my feet
And the sounds of the crashing waves
As we made love…Yeah…
Dancin with you
Like 1 2 3
I reach out my hand
And you come to me
You are the most…most Sexiest Babe
In my world…Yeah!
We’re in the Tropics…out on a Yacht
Your golden skin…glistens a lot
I can see the shore line…I can feel your Love line
Comin…in a wave towards me!
I feel your body upon my skin
Feels like a River…running through it
My mind as you smile…My heart, all the while…
Believing in our Love!
I can think of so many things
Sandy Beaches upon my feet
And the sounds of the crashing waves
As we made Love…Yeah…
Dancin with you
Like 1 2 3
I reach out my hand
And you come to me
You are the most…most Sexiest Babe
In my world…Yeah!
CITY LIGHTS
(S. Rodgers, DC Snyder)
Long nights in the city
We played it late
Not the best venue, until I saw you…
Then, I could see, just you and me, making Love
Some kind of, Devine…I’m thinking of
All glass and steel
CITY LIGHTS
I follow you somewhere…Into the night
But I know, I will soon, feel your breath, your skin
And I will, be with you…My Feme
And you are my Lover
What I live and breathe for
The world is our Oyster
Our love is so sound
And when we’re apart…the time so slowly goes
Oh, I pledge my heart…to my one true love…Yeah!
So when you’re lost…and you’re only
By yourself
Think of me and my Babe…havin fun!
Loving her, in a way…she wants to be held
Then, let her go…she just wants…to be free!
And you are my Lover
What I live and breathe for
The world is our Oyster
Our love is so sound
And when we’re apart…the time so slowly goes
Oh, I pledge my heart…to my one true Love…Yeah!
SAID SO
(S. Rodgers, DC Snyder)
While I was walking down in Chinatown
I saw a Dragon bobbing up and down
There was a Parade of Lantern Lights
With pretty girls…dancing in tights
I looked over there, she gave me a stare
Her eyes so sparkling, her eyes so wanting
She wanted to tell me…I was in danger!
Said So, she really Said So
And she was right, so right, she saved my life!
Said So, she really Said So
And her words were such…we fell in love
Said So, she really Said So, and her cries, helped me…to survive
So when I’m hangin’ out in Chinatown
I just gotta be the luckiest guy in town!
Cause everyone is so jealous of me
My Chinese Babe… is a beauty!
I looked over there, her skin was so bare
Her body, perfect shape, to anticipate
What we would do, together now!
Said so, she really Said So
And she was right, so right, she saved my life!
Said So, she really Said So
And her words were such…We fell in love
Said So, she really Said So, and her cries…helped me to survive
I looked over there, her skin was so bare
Her body perfect shape, to anticipate
What we would do together now!
Said So, she really Said So
And she was right, so right, she saved my life!
Said So, she really Said So
And her words were such, we fell in love
Said So, she really Said So
And she was right, so right, she’s outa sight!
Said So, she really Said So
And her words were such, we fell in love
And her cries…helped me to survive
I was inspired to write THAT IS SO ROCK & ROLL…After years of Recording, Rehearsing, Performing and surrounding myself with Rockers, that loved to talk about the feeling they had on stage. Telling stories about different Cities that they had Toured. The excitement , and Band “Huddles”: that they would "Bond Together), just before a show… The Women…that were such a Positive, and Cheering them on..as they made their way to the stage… So many adventures that these Musicians / Rockers, would live out…every day…THAT IS SO ROCK & ROLL! >>>DC SNYDER / PRODUCER<<<
