Mr. Big - Road To Ruin Lyrics






Good lord, I tried
To push her memory to the back o'my mind
"Mustang Sally" from her head to her toe
My life was in shambles
When she shot down that road

That was then, this is now
If I learned my lesson. I forgot it somehow
Headlights in the driveway,
A knock at the door,
I hear that voice, and I know what's in store...

Whoa oh whoa oh
I looked in those angel eyes
Whoa oh whoa oh
The devil was in disguise, yeah

She took me,
Down the road to ruin
(Yeah Baby) My Head was spinnin' round
Don't know what I'm doin'
Back on the road to ruin...

(Listen) Hip hips Sexy legs-
Ain't no surprise I got on my knewws and begged
Forked toungue, and pointed tail
If we make it this time, it's a cold day in hell

Whoa oh whoa oh
She said she'd be sweet this time yeah
Whoa oh whoa oh
One kiss and it all seemed so right

She took me,
Down the road to ruin
(Yeah Baby) My Head was spinnin' round
Don't know what I'm doin'
Back on the road to ruin...

Whoa oh whoa oh
She said she'd be sweet this time
Whoa oh whoa oh
The devil was in disguise

[Chorus out]

    im a fan of everybody in the band, have a gilbert signed poster on the wall, and think he made history but on this solo he wasnt inspired. anyways the song kicks

  5. J.... R....

    I saw them live in '91. They tore the face off everyone there! Unfortunately, 'to be with you' just hit the radio at the time and about 50% of the audience were little girls...who were there just to hear that song...they played it as an encore, and the girls had to sit through the whole show of their much better songs, like this one.

    J.... R....

    best comment ever brother! I am 34 and could se that happening the energy between the 4 men must have been amazing!!!!

    J.... R....

    Unfortunately I missed them back in '93 when they had a gig in Prague. but man, whenever I watch live in San Francisco I feel like being there, so much energy and chemistry between them! Insanely talented!

  6. S.... ....

    She took me down the road to ruin
    She took me down
    Hmm
    She took me down
    Back on the road to ruin

    Good Lord, I tried
    To push her memory to the back of my mind
    Mustang sally from her head to her toe
    My life was in shambles
    When she shot down that road

    That was then, this is now
    If I learned my lesson, I forgot it somehow
    Headlights in the driveway
    A knock at the door
    I hear that voice and I know what's in store

    Whoa oh whoa oh
    I looked in those angel eyes
    Whoa oh whoa oh
    The devil was in disguise, yeah

    (She took me)
    She took me down the road to ruin
    My head was spinnin' round
    (She took me down)
    Don't know what I'm doin'
    Back on the road to ruin

    Woo

    (Listen)
    Hip hips, sexy legs
    Ain't no surprise I got on my knews and begged
    Forked toungue and pointed tail
    If we make it this time, it's a cold day in hell

    Whoa oh whoa oh
    She said she'd be sweet this time, yeah
    Whoa oh whoa oh
    One kiss and it seemed so right

    She took me down the road to ruin
    (Yeah baby)
    My head was spinnin' round
    (She took me down)
    Don't know what I'm doin'
    Back on the road to ruin

    Whoa oh whoa oh
    She said she'd be sweet this time
    Whoa oh whoa oh
    The devil was in disguise

    (She took me)
    She took me down the road to ruin
    You know what I am talking about?
    My head was spinnin' round
    (She took me down)
    Don't know what I'm doin'
    Back on the road to ruin, yea

    She took me down the road to ruin
    (Yeah baby)
    My head was spinnin' round
    (She took me down)
    Don't know what I'm doin'
    Back on the road to ruin

    She took me down the road to ruin
    (Yea)
    (I want to keep everything to the back of my mind)
    She took me down the road to ruin
    (She took my precious soul)
    Down, down, down
    Here we go again
    Back on the road to ruin

    I LIKED THEIR ASSES MET PAUL GILBERT YEARS AGO IN ATLANTA. AT GUITAR SHOW .HE TOLD US ABOUT MR.BIG.THE SHIT! ! ! I SAW THEM LIVE .

  8. P.... C....

    If there is another band out there like unto Mr. Big, I don't know where. Awesome band. All 4 musicians just kill it! Saw them live in about 1990, opening for Winger. They blew Winger off the stage! I left halfway through Winger cuz there was no comparison. I had already seen it all! I miss rock like this!

  9. T.... ....

    Lean In to It, the best album

  10. K.... J....

    "What can really Be Said, I mean 'Paul Gilbert' is one of the most if not the most : Amazing
    Guitar Players on The Planet ! And The Song Is True To Form - It's What Women Really
    Actually Do - And I know because it was done to me by my ex-wife purposefully so . . .
    and therefore, songs written which are true to life carry that much more credibility. And
    anyone who doubts that it's true - I admonish them to read & re-read Anton Lavey's tomb
    for women about women, i.e., The Satanic Witch !"

  11. G.... C....

    THAT SWEEP!

    G.... C....

    Grant Codron 2:39!!

    Kiarash Hamirad. yes- it is the best......written by drummer - Pat Torpey.......👍

  19. J.... ....

    @Mukkelle My reason for uploading it in the first place. As well as most of the other uploads I found for lack of a better term SUCK!

  20. l.... ....

    You gotta love Paul Gilbert! One of the few shredders out there with the discipline to use his solos to compliment a song, rather than distract from it. GILBERT IS GOD!

    l.... ....

    loserbrett couldn't agree more!
