Bad Company - Shake It Up Lyrics

I'm so blind, ooh I just can't see, what kind of love you expect from me
Let me know, you gotta sort this out
Come on babe, I've had enough of this doubt

I thought I knew what you wanted, just goes to show I was wrong

I'm twice the man that ya, you think I am, this time I'm gonna be strong, yeah

[Chorus:]
Shake it up - ooh yeah, put the world to right
Shake it up - this gotta be, babe, that's alright
Shake it up - yeah baby, you ran out of luck
Shake it up - yeah yeah yeah

Whoo, you don't know, ooh what you've done for me
You built me up, baby, can't you see
Don't seem right that after all this time

I found out you're no friend of mine

You knew that sooner or later, you knew it deep in your heart
All the troubles that ya, you gave to me, babe
Were gonna tear us, tear us apart

[Chorus]

You had me searchin' for answers, you had me livin' from day to day
I guess you ran out of chances, whoo babe, there was no other way

[Solo]

I thought I knew what you wanted, just goes to show I was wrong
I'm twice the man that ya, you think I am, this time I'm gonna be strong, yeah

[Chorus repeats out]

Falem o quiserem, mas esse vocalista é fantástico.
Paddyd50 gamer

this ain't bad but I don't think its as good as the Paul Rodgers era. for me this doesn't sound like bad company. it sounds like a lot of rock from the 80's. which ain't bad but it also ain't bad company.

Michael Cristian

Fuck off! Brian Howe IS Bad Company!

Jenn Rat

I love both incarnations...😁
Todd Dechter

Brian is good, but nothing compares to the richness, soul, control and grit of Paul Rodgers. Brian Howe is like a good lager beer, BUT, Paul Rodgers is like a real good Islay single malt Scotch. No comparison, but both taste good.
Andey McFarlin

Brian sounds a bit like Lou Gramm

Michael Cristian

Sometimes like Bryan Adams!

C. Thomas

Yes, great anaolgy
Ricardo Casas

is true this vocal is more better than paul
Mark usry

I have listened to Bad Company for ever but will have to say Brian best ever his voice like none other

LP Tanker Yanker

Mark usry no doubt, this dude has the pipes for these songs, hell I never gave 2 shits about their music til Brian joined.

Anki Hansen

Paul Rodgers is so much better!

Wow! I just learned Brian was their vocalist for a few years. He sang for White Spirit on 'Watch Out', during a later version of the band. Janick Gers from Iron Maiden also was in White Spirit.
skeletoncrusader

One of the best songs of the Howe era!
stellastarr69

People today would absolutley shit themselves if a album cover like this came out today. I bought this casette when it came out and thought it was a cool album cover.

MrMrfreedom1

Ha ha, they would shit themselves, good one, fucking meddlers
