["Blues and headbanging come together at last thanks to Billy. Stretch

your neck, then listen."]



I could take what I want, but I take what I need

How can I help myself if I need everything

I get possession, the [top] of the truth

I change my direction and the bill comes due, yeah



When I turn around, the men are standin' at the door



Chorus:

It's the price, the price you gotta pay, it's comin' down today

After a time it seems so easy, like any game you play

There's a price for sayin' maybe, the price you gotta pay



I got here with nothing, I'll leave with a lot

Come on and take a chance now baby, gimme what you've got, yeah

A piece of the action, a slice of the pie

I hope you won't remember when it's time to classify



I turn around to look at you, you're lookin' back my way



(chorus)



Hit me!



(Solo)



Ow! Yeah yeah, now this is how it all adds up



Ooh, rent is due and so are you, I'm here to repossess your soul

Hey baby! You're deep into the hole



It's the price, the price you gotta pay, it's comin' down today

It started off so easy, like a little game

There's a price for sayin' maybe, the price you gotta pay - ow!



Yeah, the price you gotta pay



After a time it seems so easy, like any game you play

There's a price for sayin' maybe, the price you gotta pay - ow!
