Sign On The Line Lyrics


So many toys, so little time
You got your share, now I want mine
I'd love a trip to paradise
Ain't got the cash to pay the priceBut every time I turn around
Someone's at my door
Who says he's got the answer
I've been looking for?Sign on the line, buy now, pay later, sonny
Sign on the line, don't worry 'bout a thing
Sign on the line, well hey, it's only money
Sign on the line, go have your flingI want the high life on TV
Just like they do on dynasty
To live a life fit for a king
And have the best of everythingBut every time I save a buck
Someone's on my case
Waivin' pen and paper
They stick it in your faceSign on the line, buy now, pay later, sonny
Sign on the line, don't worry 'bout a thing
Sign on the line, well hey, it's only money

Sign on the line, go have your flingBeen spending like a millionaire
On women, cars, house in Bel Air
And all the things I can't resist
Now I got handcuffs on my wristI said,"Judge, a man like me
Can't make a dime in jail"
He said,"Son, use your credit card
So you can make your bail"Sign on the line, just buy your freedom, sonny
Sign on the line and walk on out of here
Sign on the line, well hey, it's only money
Sign on the line but don't you disappear, hear?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Steppenwolf is a rock band which formed in Los Angeles, California, United States in 1967. The band originally consisted of John Kay (vocals, guitar), Michael Monarch (guitar), Rushton Moreve (bass), Goldie McJohn (keyboards) and Jerry Edmonton (drums). The band is best known for their hit singles "Born to Be Wild" and "Magic Carpet Ride". They were named after the novel Der Steppenwolf by German author Hermann Hesse.

Frontman John Kay's mother escaped with him at age 4 from Soviet occupied East Germany, an event recounted in the song "Renegade" on the album Steppenwolf Seven. His family resettled in Hannover, West Germany, before moving to Canada in 1958. Kay is partially blind, hence the use of dark glasses

In 1968, Nick St. Nicholas replaced Moreve as bass player.

Steppenwolf had its origins in the Toronto blues band Sparrow, which was formed in 1964 and played coffeehouses in Yorkville. By 1967 they had settled in San Francisco.

Steppenwolf rocketed to fame after their third single, "Born to Be Wild" was used in the movie Easy Rider, as well as "The Pusher". The former song may have coined the term "heavy metal". This was followed by several more hits, including "Magic Carpet Ride" from Steppenwolf the Second, and "Rock Me" from At Your Birthday Party. Many fans consider their double album Steppenwolf Live [an extended single album in the UK] the best of Steppenwolf's releases. Monster and For Ladies Only were the band's most political albums, and are still fondly remembered by fans as two of the best rock & roll snapshots of the attitudes of the late 1960s and early 1970s.

The band broke up in 1971, and Kay pursued a solo career. Steppenwolf reformed in 1974 with the album Slow Flux, and disbanded in 1976. Afterwards, several versions of the band toured North America until Kay reformed the official version of the group in 1980.

John Kay released a solo album in 2001.
