Riot - Tokyo Rose Lyrics






They all called her Tokyo, the boys know her as Rose.
The game is not a good one, it's the only one she knows.
Jet black hair, lipstick glowin' red.
Caviar and bourbon, goin' straight to her head.
When you lay your money down, she'll play her games with you.
Don't gamble with you heart, she'll take it right from you.
She'll take you for a ride, with some wine and romance.
Gonna wind up face flat down, not a cent in your pants.
Tokyo Rose, Tokyo Rose, Tokyo Rose.
Back street crawler, is what she'll always be.
I can't live without her love, it's the cure for me.
Day after day, I was warned of the danger.
A little bit of love, give it away to strangers.
Tokyo Rose, Tokyo Rose, Tokyo Rose.
Tokyo, Tokyo Rose,
Tokyo, I wanna know, about you, Tokyo.
I wanna know, about you, Tokyo.
Tokyo Rose, Tokyo,
Tokyo Rose, Tokyo.
Mmmm, you sure are a strange one.
Hey, hey Tokyo.
Oh, never get too close.
Tokyo, hey Rose.

    The blues influence can be heard all through this album

  2. J.... M....

    Tremendo album, los 3 primeros de Riot son Hard Rock en su estado más puro!!!

  3. T.... H....

    Mark Reale (rip) was a blazing guitarist !!!!! as is Rick Ventura. drummer Sandy Slavin went on to play with Ace Frehley
    on all his killer albums. first singer from "the Riot' album, and "Narita" Guy Sperenza died early just as band was takin' off, (natural causes) then next singer "Rhett Forster" from "restless breed" album on died a couple laters later being shot in a hold up .... just a fucking cluster fuck... poor Mark who stayed with it thru ALL the changes fianlly wound up dead in like 2013 from "Chrones Disease" .... if that aint fucking bad luck man i dont know what is........ :(

    T.... H....

    Guy Speranza died from Pancreatic cancer in 2003. He had been working as an exterminator in Florida for years. Sandy Slavin only played Ace Frehley's Trouble Walkin' (from 1989).

    Thundersteel will always be my favorite album, but the early albums are classics, and should be in everyones metal collection.

  15. T.... ....

    This song kicks some serious ass. Riots first 3 albums are so underappreciated.

    T.... ....

    A group of my friends and me all got into Riot after one of the older brothers told us about it. He used to get all the imports and underground bands music from someone he knew in the industry. I remember when he got the first Iron Maiden album and other rare stuff at the time. Pretty cool when it was hard to come by here in Northern California.

  16. L.... H....

    Dude, I saw this band with UFO one year in SA. Helluva concert bro !
