Lyrics
You know I'm bad, the times I've had
I've got a bad reputation
I don't care, I get my share
Don't feel no deprivation, I don't
The more I get the better it is
I like it fine, like a little whiz
Treat 'em like ladies, that's a fact
You know the chase is better than the catch, you know
Silver-tongued devil, demon lech
I know just what I'm doing
I like a little innocent bitch
You know I ain't just screwing, I ain't
I love you baby, love you too much
I like it fine, I feel your touch
But your appearance don't hold no class
You know the chase is better than the catch, you know
A little beauty, I love you madly
Come on home with me
I know you're hot, I know what you've got
You know I want to shake your tree, you know
Come on honey, touch me right there
Come on honey, don't you get scared
Come on honey, let me get you in the sack
You know the chase is better than the catch
All right
Come on
Let me hear ya
Let me hear ya
Let me hear ya
Let me hear ya
I can't hear ya
I can't hear ya
I can't hear ya, can't hear!

Motorhead was not a metal band, not a punk band, not a hybrid. Motorhead was always a rock and roll band

Lemmy had a great resume’ - Hawkwind then Motörhead

[@georgehenton2730]

Motorhead was just motohead, it is technically rock n roll but its a one of a kind amazing and unique phenomenon band that will never be replicated again. I love this band so much, they make the only music that make me wanna dance and i hate dancing 😂

[@toml6200]

The best rock n roll band ever

[@BrettWCrosswell]

Yeah a top song .. people will be listening to Motorheads best for eternity. Along with my other Loud Rock band ACDC . Their the Best and loudest. I rekon Lemmy and Bon Scott share a few ..in the spirit world. The best two frontmen ..lead singers of ROCK

[@Hamburgler6.9]

First time I saw them it was, "we are motorhead and we play rock n roll". The sound guy took a shit at that show and there was heavy feedback between every guitar riff...it was awful. Second (and sadly last) time I saw them it was a more intimate show at a House of Blues where a buddy snuck me and my gf in, and they blew my doors off. Absolutely incredible. I've seen literally thousands of shows and it was easily a top 10.
