"Wanted Dead Or Alive"

It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems we're wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd drive all night just to get back home

[Chorus:]
I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days
And the people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're alone all you do is think

[Chorus]

I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere, and I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces an I've rocked them all

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side
I'm wanted dead or alive
And I ride, dead or alive
I still drive, dead or alive
Dead or alive [x4]

The song “Wanted Dead or Alive” is off of the band’s albumSlippery When Wet. The album was named after the band went to a strip club after a recording session to discuss the matter and talk about how they were taking things too seriously, when they saw the strip club has a shower right near where the dancers were performing.

The song is about the life of a rockstar. It is written in the perspective of a cowboy in the wild west. The band stated that it was extremely easy to write the lyrics because every one of them is based upon their actual experiences as a band.

I like this song because it just sounds badass. I have always liked it since I was a little kid, its just something about a little rock and roll that eases the mind.
