Shyboy

David Lee Roth · Eat 'Em And Smile

On the stage, I'm in a rage

But you I never fool

Well I can rock with anyone

But never alone with you

Somethin' starts a barkin'

Now deep inside of me

I need a classy woman

To knock me off my feet



Shyboy, shyboy, shyboy, shyboy

Shyboy, shyboy, give it one more time boy

Shyboy, shyboy, shyboy, shyboy

Shyboy, shyboy, give it one more time boy



Oh, you make me nervous

More than I had planned

Would you wanna know me

If I wasn't in the band?

Crazy feelings

Deep inside of me

I need a wild woman

To knock me off my feet



Shyboy, shyboy, shyboy, shyboy

Shyboy, shyboy, give it one more time boy

Shyboy, shyboy, shyboy, shyboy

Shyboy, shyboy, give it one more time boy



Gotta keep things movin'

Till my personality starts improvin'



Shyboy, shyboy, shyboy, shyboy

Shyboy, shyboy, give it one more time boy

Shyboy, shyboy, shyboy, shyboy

Shyboy, shyboy, give it one more time boy



Gotta keep things movin'

Till my personality starts improvin'



Shyboy, shyboy, shyboy, shyboy

Shyboy, shyboy, give it one more time boy

Shyboy, shyboy, shyboy, shyboy

Shyboy, shyboy, give it one more time boy

Shyboy

David Lee Roth's "Shyboy" serves as a high-energy anthem from the 1985 album "Eat 'Em And Smile," showcasing his signature blend of rock and roll swagger and comedic timing. Recorded during the height of his solo career, the track exemplifies the raucous, party-centric sound that defined Roth's early work. With its driving rhythm and Roth's characteristic vocal delivery, the song captures the rebellious spirit of mid-80s rock while establishing themes of youthful excess and confidence. As a staple of his discography, it remains a defining example of his ability to merge theatrical performance with accessible pop-rock structures, cementing his legacy as a frontman who prioritized entertainment and fun above all else.
