Chickenfoot - Lighten Up Lyrics






Why you workin' so hard, baby
You could be makin' it easy
You know it pisses me of sometimes
When you, you start acting sleazy

I'm under so much pressure
You know there's not much blowin' up
Feelin' under the gun sometimes
Makes me feel like throwin' up

I said, oh baby
You're pushin' too hard
You're pushin' too hard
You say, lighten up

Well, don't ask me no questions
And I will tell you no lies
We've been down that road before
And it's me, not that other guy

And I never wanted to hurt you
I didn't mean to make you cry
You always get what you want from me, don't you
Whith a tear drop in your eye

I said, oh baby
You're pushin' too hard
You're pushin' too hard
You got to lighten up

You're pushin' too hard
You're pushin' on me
You're pushin' too hard, baby
Lighten up

I like it when you want it
Especially when you take it
When you really, really need it
That's when I know you're not faking it, wooh

Hey, gonna call in a doctor
Maybe get you on some pills
But then I started to worry about you, baby
Could be the pill that kills

I said, oh baby
You're pushin' too hard
You're pushin' too hard
You got to lighten up

Oh baby
You're pushin' too hard
Lighten up

I said, oh baby
You're pushin' too hard
You're pushin' too hard

Oh baby
Come on, baby
Come on, baby
Lighten up, yeah

Oh baby
You're pushin' too hard
Oh baby
Baby, lighten up

Pushin' too hard
You're pushin' too hard
Pushin' too hard
Pushin' too hard

I say, oh baby
Pushin' too hard
Oh baby, come on

Pushin' too hard
Baby, lighten up
Oh baby

    💕💕💕💕

  2. B.... S....

    lighten up guys :P

  3. M.... G....

    OMFG Satch!!! Damn!!!

  4. V.... ....

    This song is a masterpiece

  5. D.... B....

    They need to put some space in their music.. There music sounds so cluttered. It's like they throw everything at you at once.  They can learn alot from  revisiting some of Eddie's material. Now he is a true song smith. He knows when to play and when not to play. He lets his tunes breath.

    D.... B....

    bullshit

    D.... B....

    I'll second that bullshit

    D.... B....

    it's just slick studio rock muzak that sounds like they want to rock 1973 but don't have the brains or edge to catch a buzz in 2015

  6. D.... ....

    you should hear VH new album!

  7. H.... H....

    The NEXT SUPER GROUP! I'm 50 and this album/music rocks! I've NOT turned one song off and have listened to all of them MORE then once! I post them and my OLD friends comment on them also! For ALL of the NAY-SAYERS,you know NOT what you're talkin bout. By the BY,They are SOLD OUT or I'd've bought em already. just sayin

  8. R.... ....

    Fuck. Yeah.!! ~♥♫~{\o/}~

  9. d.... ....

    Ok VH fans, Roth is washed up, can't sing worth beans, could never come close to Sammy's awesome vocals. What's VH without MA? He was just as part of the band as Sammy, that being said, just how are they suppose to fry Chicken with two key ingredients missing from VH recipe? They can't. Chickenfoot kicks ass, no doubt about it!

  10. t.... ....

    God I swear, Sam can't write a memorable song to save his life with this band. "Getcha soap up" "Alright alright alright alright alright" "Arribe arriba" "Oh yeah" etc...

  11. B.... ....

    @skiyal8rdude-I feel the same way. I love Van Halen and Eddie riffs are some of the best in the world, but Joe is my favorite guitarist for a reason. Joe, by himself, has had more albums than Van Halen over the years. He's never burnt out and then to see him cranking out kick-ass rock riffs for Chickenfoot is just utterly amazing to me. He's almost as old as Eddie to boot. I just pray that the new Van Halen album is great and they won't be looked back in history as the band that just fell apart.

  12. g.... ....

    Ok, it's sad that everyone is calling VH gay knowing damn good and well when they were on top back in the day, you had their cassettes (yeah...cassette tapes), and went to the shows. I did. I rocked the shit out of VH back in the day. STILL DO! I love VH and they'll always be my all time fav. CHICKENFOOT on the other hand is a group of rockers who I think are having a blast doing what they love and not just putting out trash music for money. SO much talent in one band.

  13. M.... C....

    I hear a little bit of the Pretenders in this. Nice. Not a ripoff... just a nuance. Musicians will notice it.

  14. V.... V....

    I loved VH, and eddie is one of my idols. I have been playing guitar for over 30 years and GOD DAMMED YES I KNOW WHAT I AM DOING and what joe is doing.
    But I 'm sorry to say. Eddie never achieved the level of JOE.
    I was hoping Eddie would show some new progress when I saw them in 2008.
    Wow! was I dissapointed. Bitter sweet. Nevertheless; no reason to bag on VH or CF. I thank GOD, the FOOT has brought Rock and Roll Back. Kids. put down the rap for a day. See these guys LIVE AND LEARN.

  15. G.... A....

    wooooow this is the true rock and roolll;Satch the big boss, Como to Argentina in 2012 please¡¡¡¡

  16. S.... C....

    @Gravelgutband you get a thumbs up for Van Gaylen

  17. R.... O....

    Foot is on order

  18. T.... P....

    I need to get me the FOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  19. R.... M....

    This is not a Van Halen video, this is a Chickenfoot video, therefore its better, so stop mentioning Van Gaylen and their washed up inbred lineup!!! This is the only good new band out their!!! Cherish it!!!!
