Kenny Loggins - Alive 'n' Kickin' lyrics

Back in the days of the 33 and 45 First time I remember feelin' alive Playin' like a'ringin' a bell 'n' I learned it off the radio Sure it was only mama's broom but I was strummin' like a fool A true believer till the day I die If you'd a plugged me in, in front of all my friends I would'a set the livin' room on fire I was alive Alive 'n' Kickin' Like a time bomb tickin' Headed for the Hullaballoo There were no big gigs in sight No bright white-hot spotlight But everybody knew that I was Alive 'n' Kickin' Got in a battle of the bands when I stole my big brother's guitar Let me tell you, that'll never get you far 2000 Overnights later 'n' I'm still not on the radio Got a new Best Friend He was more than Sittin' In 'N' we were makin' our mark on the road Our regalia'd hit Full Sail 'N' we were trapped into the Mother Lode We was alive Alive 'n' Kickin' Like a time-bomb tickin' On the cover of the Rollin' Stone As far as we could see It was the way it was meant to be The whole world knew that we was Alive 'n' Kickin' It's been miles 'n' miles Still Alive And pickin' Now I'm in the daze of the downloadin' digital fights Bit by bit, byte by byte But everybody says it's music 'cause they hear it on the radio 'N' when I hit the stage I'm gonna rattle your cage I still remember how to howl at the moon And I can carry the load whether I'm on the road Or jus' appearing in my living room 'Cause I am alive Alive 'n' Kickin' Like a time-bomb tickin' This boy's ready to blow Don't need to tell you why I'm gonna love to do it 'til the day I die Everybody's gonna know that I Am Alive 'n' Kickin' We been rockin' since '73 And just between you 'n' me You better believe that we Are alive Alive 'n' Kickin'
