Ballad of the Band Lyrics


Who is that band they're been raving about?
Who is that band selling all the girls out?
They've turned the music business inside outWhat is their name? It's on the tip of my tongue
You know the ones you must have heard the song
It's played a rakett all day longThe critics acclaimed 'em said you boys are the end
You're gonna take over from our last weeks trends
You're gonna be huge once your advance to spend
Sonny watch your money
'Cause now baby, you're in rock 'n' rollWell, nobody's has heard 'em till an hour ago
Well, now they're livin' out on Malibu Beach
They got luxury homes and toilets with phonesBut a knighthood is still out of reach
It can't be bad, I've heard the woman are rife
Hope they ain't dump though and get sued by a wife
And end up paying for the rest of their lifeSonny watch your money
'Cause now baby, you're in rock 'n' roll
Sonny watch your money
'Cause now baby, you're in rock 'n' rollSonny watch your money
'Cause now baby, you're in rock 'n' roll

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Bad Company was a 1970s British blues-rock group fronted by Paul "The Voice" Rodgers. Their name came from a ‘70s Western movie and they were formed by former members of Mott the Hoople, Free, and King Crimson. Members were Paul Rodgers (singer/pianist), Mick Ralphs (guitarist), Boz Burrell (bassist), and Simon Kirke (drummer).

Their hits include “Shooting Star,” “Bad Company,” “Feel Like Makin’ Love,” “Rock ‘N’ Roll Fantasy,” "Ready for Love," and “Can’t Get Enough,” most of which are off of the albums Straight Shooter and Bad Company.

In the mid 80`s Rodgers & Burrell left the band. New singer Brian Howe, who had worked with Ted Nugent earlier, made 4 albums with the band. Year 1990`s LP Holy water contained big hit "If you needed somebody". Their style was then more like melodic rock.

In mid 1990`s Howe left the band and solo artist Robert Hart replaced him. Also other guitarist Dave Colwell & basist Rick Wills joined to group. In 2000`s Paul Rodgers came back to make the new album with old band members Kirke, Ralphs & other guys. They got a hit with the song "Joe Fabulous" what was number 1 on Classic Rock Radio. After that recording all original members left the band and new line-up members came to band. Robert Hart became again the band´s singer.
