Waite, John - A Piece Of The Action Lyrics
I've got no money
Could you spare a dime?
I got the plan
If you got the time
You can claim your share
Of the action
Been on the road
For a long time now
Paid all my dues
Oh, I'm ready now
If you take me there
You can claim your share
Oh, for a piece of the action
Oh, for a slice of the cake
Oh, for a piece of the action
Oh, for a slice of the cake
Sometimes I feel
As I'm going down
That nothing can stop me
From losing ground
If you take me there
You can claim your share
Of the action
Oh, for a piece of the action
Oh, for a slice of the cake
Oh, for a piece of the action
Oh, for a slice of the cake
For a slice of the cake

Very good song
Good album.does anybody remember when MTV came out?
Good album , very good band
great song and a genius and famous melody
OP, I as well saw The Babys live during their heyday. Got to see them in a show in 79. The Babys, The Cars, Heart , and Ted Nugent. Odd lineup,,,,GREAT SHOW.
This song is in my "Best of 1977 (No Big Hits!)" playlist
I bought this Babys album (already) around a decade ago
Great "bigger-than-life" song. Love it!
Great way to describe this tune! Thanks for checking it and commenting!

We hope to see you there: https://www.facebook.com/MichaelCorbyOfficialMusicArtistSite/
Top Job MGM from a fellow Babys fan who loves quality Rock music. I find it very hard to define my top 10 or whatever because there is so much great music that has been created during rocks 60 year run but the track Union Jacks will definitely be in it.
+noddynewbold I have started that track.... I love it as well....actually there's quite alot on Union Jacks album that I would love to touch! thanks for checking and commenting! Great to hear from another fan of this amazing band!
Outstanding MGM, we all appreciate you artistry and yes, I miss those 70's days as well
+Buck Fama Thanks so much....it's great to hear from all us (OMG can it be true!?) oldtimers! LOL!
I thought you did a great job on an excellent song!
Hi Metal GuruMessiah

I'd like to request "Golden Mile " to you if possible.
SC.
Thank you my friend...so great to hear from another fan of The Baby's! I played with a few tracks from Broken Heart trying to decide which to do first....including "Golden Mile"....yeah that's one of my other favorites from the album as well. Thanks for reminding me to.....I might actually go back to it soon. (I do have another Baby's vid almost finished which will arrive first....hope you check it!).....thanks for watching and the nice comment!
Can you please do 'Wrong or Right'?
Hugely underrated band that should have been huge today, doing stadium tours.
Thanks for posting this & greetings from San Antonio.
One of my favorite bands ever... Thank you.
I was almost married in that time...:=))

Where is the Piece of the Action from he Baby's John..? Where's the Time.....This was breaking Heart, and 1977 was very emotinal as Student! .
Good use of high speed video of LV and the use of Hopper's painting (a la TCM) --
John
Here comes a new Babys fan :-) I love their glam/rock/pop/glam style ;-)) and your vid is beautiful (as always, i should say...) you're surely the best sponsor of all these musicians, nice to see Vegas :-) Thanks Jon
Wow outstanding video Jon! *****
GREAT SONG AND VIDEO!!!!!
Amazing.............
this was my first babys album. i listened to it (and still do) so many times, my friends became quite irritated with me, because i was always singing or humming it and i always brought it to partys. i remains one of my favorite albums to this day. once again guru, excellent sound quality and wonderful imaging. thank you so much.
i was 5, I heard it on the radio and time stood still, it never lost my attention this one.
