Lyrics
[Verse 1] When you get to the top You ever been to the top? Just listen, let me tell ya' Hear what you're missing Shut up and listen

[Pre-Chorus] In the beginning you'll get crazy Spending all the money you got No more women to love you now You gotta go and leave town

[Chorus - repeat twice] Back On The Rocks! Back On The Rocks! Baby! You gotta keep your mind together Back On The Rocks! Back On The Rocks! Baby! You gotta go and live forever!

[Verse 2] When you're Back On The Rocks It means you've been to the top Just listen to the bad-boy Giving the facts on It can be all gone
