Lyrics

[Intro]
Sweet emotion
Sweet emotion
[Verse 1]
Talk about things that nobody cares
Wearing other things that nobody wears
You're calling my name, but I gotta make clear
I can't say, baby, where I'll be in a year
[Verse 2]
Some sweat hog mama with a face like a gent
Said my get up and go, musta got up and went
Well, I got good news, she's a real good liar
'Cause the backstage boogie set your pants on fire
[Chorus]
Sweet emotion
Sweet emotion
[Verse 3]
I pulled into town in a police car
Your daddy said I took it just a little too far
You're telling me things, but your girlfriend lied
You can't catch me because the rabbit done died
Yes, it did
[Verse 4]
You stand in the front, just a-shaking your ass
I'll take you backstage, you can drink from my glass
I'll talk about something you can sure understand
'Cause a month on the road and I'll be eating from your hand
Written by: Steven Tyler, Tom Hamilton
