Ruff Stuff
AC/DC · Blow Up Your Video
'em small
And if I had to take the
oath I would take them all
Give me that ruff stuff
(It's what I want)
She's a saint, she's a
sinner
She's a rave, rave, rave
She's a woman, she's a
winner
In every way, way, way
She don't want love
Nor cabaret that's out
She like to play around
That suits me fine
I like it better when she
read my mind
You know, don't want a woman
with a ball and chain
Don't want to play that game
[CHORUS]
Just give me that ruff stuff
I want ruff stuff
Baby give me ruff stuff
You don't want ruff stuff?
Don't want your face around
here
Make you shake, make you
shiver
Make you pray, pray, pray
Gonna make you quake, make
you quiver
And turn you grey, grey,
grey
I don't need brakes
They slow me down too much
They keep me out of touch
They lock me in
I like it better when I pull
the pin
You know, don't want a woman
with a ball and chain
Don't want to play that game
[CHORUS]
I like them big and I like
them small
And if they asked me to take
the oath,
I would have to take them
all
Give me that ruff stuff
Don't want your face round
here
I don't want your face round
my backyard any more
