Lyrics:


Verse 1

"I don't care if my name goes as long as you give me just what I want,
I been losin' my direction, gotta find a new connection.
You have wasted and never tasted, now I'm really getting' hungry more and more,
Been a long time, had a bad sign.  Tell me what am I beggin' for?"



Chorus

"Lover are you feelin?
You know they really need it.
Keep on pushin' for more.
Lay down, stay down.
I've got something to find,
There's one thing I really need,
I'm gonna tell you right now.
Lay down, stay down!"



Verse 2

"Lookin' for trouble, I guess that's right
When I was young, I was taught to fight.
It's been long gone, since I had known,
Now I'm heading for some more."                                



Transcriber's notes: 
Yeah, I left off near the opening of the solo, but 
This should give you a running start on learning this one.  I decided to
Leave off the timing, since it only seemed to confuse things.  Listen to
The album and the rest should come naturally.  Well, as natural as playing 
Blackmore can be!
