Van Halen - Romeo Delight Lyrics






I told her, never in hell, no special reason.
Must a lied 'cause I ain't leavin'.
We're in for a very long night.
Heard a vicious rumor from your mama's tongue: you a desp'rate woman, need a man with a gun.
High crime zone in the city of lights.
Baby, please!
Can't take it anymore.
Baby, please!
Can't take it anymore.
I'm takin' whiskey to the party tonight, and I'm lookin' for somebody to squeeze.
I ain't lookin' for somebody to fight.
Baby, don't get uptight.
Baby, please!
Wanna see my I.D.? Try to clip my wings!
Don't have to show you proof of anything.
I know the law friend.
At the 'leventh hour. I'm goin' back outside.
Give it a try.
I'm your last loose end.
Baby, please!
Can't take it anymore.
Baby, please!
Can't take it anymore.
I'm takin' whiskey to the party tonight and I'm lookin' for somebody to squeeze.
I ain't lookin' for somebody to fight.
Baby, don't get uptight.
Baby, please!
I feel my heart beat, feel my heart beat, feel my heart beat, oh yeah.
Baby, please!
Can't take it anymore.
Baby, please!
Can't take it anymore.
I'm takin' whiskey to the party tonight, and I'm lookin' for somebody to squeeze.
I ain't lookin' for somebody to fight.
Baby, don't get uptight.
Baby, please!

    I read somewhere that this was Valerie's favorite VH song. Of the Dave years, maybe mine, too. Sexy and kicks ass. Damn. Crank it up! Excellent remaster.

    F.... J....

    She had good taste, if that's true...

    F.... J....

    @Love God & Neighbor. Not sure where I heard it, some interview highlighting the band at that time. Local FM station would play an hour long retrospective of different Rock bands with interviews mixed in with their groups songs. Probably originated from L.A.The show ran for years. The interviewer had a very distinct and deep radio voice. I wouldn't lie about one of their best.

  6. T.... C....

    Micheal and that FAT ASS BASS!!!!😱

    This Eddie Van Halen guy, I think he has a chance to be a pretty decent guitar player.

  10. B.... K....

    If you want some "Rock with Attitude," play some Diamond Dave Van Halen!

  11. N.... B....

    Van halen was so good with diamond dave

  12. C.... W....

    One of the best rock albums of all time....if you’re not pumped by listening to this, man, there’s something wrong with you. My favorite concert tour...

  13. B.... R....

    This is real KICK ASS CLASSIC ROCK!

  14. A.... A....

    They were Awesome, really first Van Halen was a fast Heavy Metal hard Rock band, Michael Anthony was the secret that made David Lee Roth sound like a million Bucks!

    A.... A....

    It certainly helped but back then DLR was a bad motherfucker all by himself

  15. �.... ....

    ドーナツ醤油 ぶかっけなさい

  16. M.... M....

    Eddie's playing in this song is pure fucking savagery!

  17. c.... 4....

    🤯🤯🤟🤟🤟

    c.... 4....

    The US Festival was so-so, since they were all really drunk. But VH was usually the best back then...

  18. R.... R....

    The vh/ dave albums are all greatest hits albums, amazing how perfect these 4 were together, guess the big egos and fights brings out the best in ya

  19. D.... ....

    nice and raunchy

  20. D.... ....

    so fucking good

  37. H.... B....

    This song quietly became one of my favorites from them, particularly that riff at 1:48-constantly draws me in. When I used to play the album, I guess I could've lifted the needle on it-it was the last track on side A, I seem to recall. However, I never did. I was rewarded.

    H.... B....

    H Bentley ...That riff is actually thrash metal--'''''.
