Led Zeppelin - For Your Life Lyrics
You said I was the only, With my lemon in your hand
Exhibition is your habit, Emotion second hand.
Had to pull away to save me, Maybe next time around
And she said, 'don't you want it?
Don't you want cocaine-cocaine-cocaine
Heard a cry for mercy, In the city of the damned
Oh oh babe, damned. Down in the pits you go no lower
The next stop's underground. Oh, hello underground.
Wine and roses ain't quite over, fate deals a losing hand
And I said: didn't mean to... did not mean to fail
You didn't plan it, you over-ran it
You wanna do it, you wanna
You wanna do it when you wanna
When you blow it, babe, You got to blow it right
Oh baby, if you fake it, mama, Baby, fake with all your might
When you fake it, mama, Please fake it right (for yourself babe)
When you fake it baby,
You're fakin' it for your life, for your life, for your life, for your life
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, Do it when you wanna
Do it, do it, do it, Do it when you wanna
Oh, I can have you, baby, But I don't know what to do, yeah
Sometime, baby, nothin' I could do
On the balance of a crystal, Payin' through the nose
And when they couldn't resist you, I thought you'd go with the flow.
And now your stage is empty, bring down the curtain, baby please.
Fold up your show
Hadn't planned to, Could not stand to fry in it
Hadn't planned it, I over-ran it, (fryin)
For your life, For your life.

Led Zeppelin For Your Life Comments
1 year old
I always liked presence all my friends didn't wtf do they know
I just cannot ever tire of Zeppelin. There is nothing out there that even comes close.
If ever there was a touch of the devine, it would be no mistake to search here.
If you have ever heard said, ..."If Led Zeppelin is Rock and Roll, nothing else is. That was right here.
This song should have been buried at birth, it's a abortion.
My 3rd favorite Led Zeppelin song of all time.
A animação ficou bizarra
Live 2007 wooooo!
If you are a Led Zeppelin fan or better yet a ZepHead - fanatic ....I LOVE U
love this video, well done
Straight Zep. Stripped down rock.
Fawn Hall rocks.
God damn it! now I've got to fire up Itunes and listen to EVERY Zep album all over again!!
Great album! Awesome bobbleheads too.
FOREVER LED ZEP BY TOMMY
06:24 plant adding a noise
My personal favorite. Love the time shifts. Cool lyrics. Great.
For your life / royal Orleans / nobody fault but mine/& the rover/ InThe Light\Ten Years Gone/NIght Flight/Rain Song/Ramble On/Your Time Is gonna Come/ Are my top 10 very favorite Led Zeppelin Songs of all time for me ..Saw Zep Live 3 times 75&77 msg.nyc..Great....
Best quality album they made IMO.
love the shaking heads on the album cover :)
my girlfriend saw the next pic and I almost got in trouble.. ;)
c'est pas eux qui conduisait !!
5:31 & 5:33 You hear snorting! Almost sounds like a pig.
Holy shit what a song! Definitely 1 of my favorite all time favorite Zeppelin tunes! The changes are genius throughout the whole song..The driven drums kill ..the band was so tight, at its best on Presence !! Jimmy's guitar tone is dead on amazing..Best sounding album in my opinion
This album cumz out of the gate totally kicking serious ass!!! Presence along with physical graffiti, r under appreciated champs!!!!!
Wtf at 5:06?
Prog Rock ALbum! MagNif!
An interesting thing about Presence, is that there are no acoustic guitars on any of the tracks. The only Zeppelin album with that distinction.
Got to be one of the greatest hard rock songs of all time !!! Jones & Page really nailed those riffs !!!
Imagine Robert Plant sick sitting in a chair and this great music is produced.....Their best album to me.
The lick that starts at 2:08 always makes me think of Woody Woodpecker. :0)
Yup, me as well ever since I first heard it.
I love the freedom in this!
Great song...
neon graphic arts!
NICE VIDEO!😏👍💖🧞♂️
Chaos.....uh oh....
Bonzo beating the shit out of them cans
This is no coincidence that still photos of Led Zeppelin really do move when you enter the higher realms of the mind just as this album cover is doing. I wonder if anyone else ever notices this.
No one ever speaks/writes of the things I take notice of. I am not of this world. I prefer to hang out in realms of the mind as opposed to that of the physical.
What a track.
Oh, I can have you, baby
But I don't know what to do, yeah
Sometime, baby
Nothin' I could do
On the balance of a crystal
Payin' through the nose
And when they couldn't resist you
I thought you'd go with the flow
And now your stage is empty, bring down the curtain, baby please
Fold up your show
Hadn't planned to
Could not stand to fry in it
Hadn't planned it
I over-ran it
WTF is with the video?
I love this song! I adore Bonzo,love Jimmy and Plant is my idol but JPJ is most important figure of led zepp, because if it wasn't him zeppelin would fall apart lot before Bonzo's death!
To be honest, I prefer the 02 arena version
2 and Prezentz Tied for 1! Jimmy's Genius shines
The visuals accompanying the music are... Unique
The best
My 2nd favorite Led Zeppelin song, I think.
The Mighty Zep !
Jesus I cant look at that video (2:10)
Most people can't relate ! Epicenes ++++++
APEX ZEP
This is without a doubt the sexiest song in zepplins catalog..love this tune..for your life..
unbelieveble
Where's Darlene written for yours truly
Led Zeppelin at its worse is still heads & shoulders above the rest! Js this like all other Zeppelin is great just a lil less familiar than most..
5:30 Plant doing his alien shapeshifter thing.
I need my weed..
Im in a public library and have to restrain my self from singing out loud!!!!
Cannot Believe This Riff and This Album!!!
All of us jewbags say welcome in the name of YUD-HAY-VAV-HAY
Truly heavy metal.
Takes me right back to spring, 1976.
Good music
Now you know where Billy Squire got ALL of his ideas
4:16-5:04. Led Zeppelin finally played this live and Jimmy Page didn't remember how to play it.
He was most certainly shitfaced haha
The monkey on your back album produced by an heroin addict. This is my 3rd favorite Led Zeppelin song. Heavy drugs aren't as bad as they say, man. If they can make this while that fucked up, well than all those anti-drug shmucks must be wrong.
C Wit, that's the GREATEST comment I've ever heard of LZ in my life!! And I AGREE.
Once I start with Zep I can't stop! I've been addicted for over 20 years now
Does anyone else hear someone snorting a line :) lol
Incredible guitar solo in the midst of the song . Long Live Zeppelin
That guitar solo is straight sex
Have a flashback every time I hear it
Fuck killer love this album 4 every 1's life rock fuckin out did a lot of real good acid 2 this back in the day.
I mean .. what the hell is this 00:27 ?
hahha their heads are moving !!! I love it !! very funny.... and then jimmy hits that last growling note of his solo
My 3rd favorite Led Zeppelin song.
Jimmy Page doesn't have a "safe" word....
ONE of their very best songs
AND AFTER ALL that WHAT IS HE TALKING ABOUT ROBERT PLANT!?! I HEARD LEMON I KNO THE LEMON SONG AND WHAT THAT'S ABOUT I THINK HE WANT HER TO GIVE HIM SOME HEAD RIGHT IN THIS SONG?!
LOVE THE lyrics GUYS!!!!WHAT THE FUCK DID MY EAR HOLES JUST EXPERIENCE FOR THE MILLIONTH TIME AND STILL ROCKING?!! FUCKING MUSICAL GENIUS!!!!!!! IS WHAT THEY EXPERIENCED AND GONNA START IT OVER AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN DO IT WHEN YA WANNA!!! DO IT JIMMY DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT JIMMY PLEASE PLEASE DON'T STOP OMG OH OH OH OH!!! LOVE THE LYRICS GUYS

Rush>Led Zeppelin

WHEN YOUR FU FU FU FUCKIN BABY YOUR FUCKIN UP 4 YOUR LIFE.......DO IT IF YOU WANNA
I'm still listening in 2019 happy 50th anniversary Led Zeppelin!
I love this jam those drums. Tht beat tho
Michelle C RIP John Bonham He was the best drummer I ever heard!
Amazing lp. I will always be associated with cool times ...
Łukasz M. I'm still listening in 2019 Led Zeppelin 50 years old and will never die!
I wish the band never ended...
I wish they could have done more music for us :(
You can clearly see how the band evolved, makes me wonder where they would lead the music as the decades went by...
Calebe Priester they ended just before I could see them! I was waiting to buy tickets but John Bonham died.
Damn I mean come on did these guys ever have a bad song ?? Why hell no👍👍
One of the great underrated Zeppelin tunes
well now lets set up shop and see what happends
☝✌👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤
Mental.
My 3rd favorite Led Zeppelin song.
All Zeps shit was badass, my party music back in the day, and I cant leave the sound behind, Plant vocals, page's riffs and Bonham' s drum banging, and Jones was an extraordinary bassist, leave this here, do it, if ya wanna
If you seen interviews and pictures of the surviving members of Zeppelin you noticed one thing that John Paul Jones doesn't look like he's aged Jimmy Page Robert Plant they look like old men the white hare wrinkles John Paul Jones he keeps getting better looking he doesn't look like an old man it's amazing I wonder what Bonza would look like now with all that drinking probably pretty bad but it would have been great to still have him.
Shared this with my brother. Asked him how much weed he smoked listening to this song
The answer? All of it
The very first time I heard the Presence album (the day it was released) ...blew me away. I was baffled why others didn't understand what an absoute masterpiece this was. I listen to it today and it still blows me away. Slowly, people have seemed to come around to it I think.
Frodo's wife
This is the greatest funk song of all time. James Brown's corpse is zombie-fuckin' his non-lubed dead ghost-hand to this song. He's all like "DAMN! I didn't have to spend so much money on inept motherfuckers playing multiple horns? I could just hire this guitar playing motherfucker to be the horn section?
...and have the funkiest gottdamn drummer ever?"
Great album ,my brother used to crank this album thru the whole dam neighborhood, loud as hell ,made me a zep fan for life.
