Motorhead - Black Leather Jacket Lyrics






Bad black leather and it's mine all mine
Just like nineteen fifty nine
Skin tight jeans jet black hair
Buckle down shoes Babe I ain't no square
Looking for love and you know I'm gonna crack it
King of rock 'n' roll in a black leather jacket

Say mama can I go out tonight?
I look sharp and I feel all right
New blue moon gonna give me romance
Reeling and rocking at the high school dance
C'mon everybody let's get 'n' crack it
Mean mutha in a black leather jacket

You know you gotta get it right
Get ready for a Saturday night
Bye bye bay, watch me jive
Do you wanna take a walk outside?

Long Tall Sally and Susie Q
Short Fat Fanny and Mary Lou
Bonie Moronie and Maybelline
D'ya wanna dance Sweet Little Sixteen?
Got a piano and a sax to back it
Rocking out in a black leather jacket

I got me some rock 'n' roll shoes
I'm all done with singing the blues
Born to lose, live to win
You keep a knocking but ya can't come in
Chase me baby, you know you can't catch it
Outta sight in a black leather jacket

    I.... V....

    On youtube

    I.... V....

    Technically, it's not Motorhead. It's by "Lemmy And The Upsetters" (it is mostly Motorhead members though). It was done in the mid 80s for a British TV show tracing the history of the iconic black leather jacket. And it is an original, not a cover.

  18. E.... A....

    You will never be forgotten RIP

  28. M.... 7....

    Rocka-fucking-billy!

  29. R.... d....

    :))))))))))))

  30. I.... d....

    Nothing beats wearing a black leather jacket!

  31. T.... ....

    I wish they did more songs like this.....just great, kick ass rock n roll with an old school sound! The only other song they did like this is Don't Waste Your Time from Sacrifice. Sorry but IMO they're wasting their talent by not doing more songs like this. Funny how Lemmy keeps insisting all these years that " We're NOT metal, we are rock n roll!" Well Lemmy, then why does EVERY SINGLE Motorhead album have 1 or 2 thrash metal songs yet NEVER songs like this?!

    T.... ....

    Going to brasil

    T.... ....

    Angel City

    T.... ....

    you should check out the band Head Cat, with Lemmy.. real rockabilly style

  42. M.... ....

    you must be a retarded dumb fuck to think on parole is a ska song ! hahaha lmfao

  43. s.... s....

    Lemmy is the GOD

  44. A.... W....

    hehe that guy is proud that his lady slept with dickinson and was gonna shag lemmy !! wtf ?

  45. A.... O....

    THANK´S FOR UPLOADING THIS JEWEL,,,long time seeked by fans...One of the classic rarest tracks, included in a fashion history documentary about : Black leather jackets........who can compare great old time rock'nroll with ska????

  46. g.... ....

    I haven't heard that much, living in the States, but I like old ska, such as Prince Buster and the Skatallites, The song just had something that sound like a ska riff to it in some parts. Great tune, though. Wish they release more Larry stuff in the US.

  47. P.... R....

    never heard this song before, not bad !

  48. d.... ....

    no not even close to ska.....

  49. g.... ....

    I disagree to a point; I think both Lemmy and Larry were neck to neck in the songwriting department. The first album was a phenomena, though, because you had the best of hawkwind mixing it with the best of new music/punk. And wasn't ON PAROLE a ska song?

  50. S.... ....

    @puntostilocoupe lol.

  51. p.... ....

    MOTORHEAD had an outstanding composer of rock and roll ... Larry Wallis was a big mistake .... It is that Lemmy forget ... or will not recognize the quality of Larry .... I know many great songs from rock and roll past 40 years, but no one was more MOTORHEAD guitarist-composer than Larry Wallis ... Motorhead should now play one concert of his songs for MOTOLarry Wallis did it better ... Lemmy but put it on the Highest Point .... Wallis was the best songwriter in MOTORHEAD.

  52. b.... ....

    @Crotchboxer thank you. It's my mission in life....you know......

  53. J.... S....

    @badleatherlad You would be doing all of humanity a great service if you spread that concept across the entire internet.

    Yes, Lemmy IS fuckin' Rock 'n' Roll!

  62. T.... ....

    We are Motorhead.... AND WE PLAY ROCK N' ROLL!

  63. W.... ....

    my little brother hears music like that from sesame straße (for german children) and he is only 1 year old :D:D

  64. M.... ....

    The boxet 'Stone Deaf Forever!' is released 2003.
    But does anybody know when this song is recorded?
    'Cuz at wikipedia is written, that the television documentary is already published 1985.

  65. D.... F....

    200 % Rock'N'Roll !
    it sounds like Motorhead meets Little Richard & Jery Lee Lewis !

  66. w.... ....

    @lemmycro

    I knew what you meant brother, I've been there myself many times! (last night in fact) Just laughing with ya, not at ya! My typing is horrible when I get hammered.

    I wish times are like that now,no one like guys in black leather jacket right now,and nobody dances to rock n roll now.Fuck i wish i was born in '50s,Sorry for my english roight now im kind of durk

  72. R.... M....

    chauffe à blanc, now

  73. A.... ....

    supporting what you wear and believe in never makes you a wannabe tough guy even when your willing to do some ass kicking and all sorts of shit as long as your not the one looking for trouble or a way to prove how "badass" you are thats when your the real fuckin deal - keep rocking man bring the old rock n roll style back

  74. A.... ....

    i hate those fucking girly sons of bitches, nowadays even rockers are called emos or goths by the media that pisses me off

  75. M.... L....

    I love this song!!!! they really nailed it with this one...of course they are Motorhead

  76. J.... B....

    @TombViolator non better than motorhead, better than "black leather jacket"... i don't like this song.. i prefer blue suede shoes of course ;)

  77. D.... M....

    @BarbedPrideOfficial Better than Motörhead ? I don't think so... ;)

  78. J.... B....

    Hey YOU!!!!!!! boys and girls, ladies and gentleman search and listen "barbed pride deception"... it's better than it!

  79. D.... W....

  82. L.... L....

    HOLY HELL I have been looking for this song for years! Finally when I search for it, it's here. Motorhead fucking rules!

    Y'know, my old lady had the chance to nail Lemmy but nailed Bruce Dickinson instead. Honestly, I would beg to differ in that situation. Lemmy's more badass.

  83. P.... a....

    Hell yeah! Hail Lemmy hail motorhead.

  84. M.... ....
