Rolling Stock Lyrics

GREASEBALL:
I'm just the fastest thing you'll ever see
That streak of lightning you just missed was me

GREASEBALL & THE GANG:
Don't stop now - we gotta keep it going all night
Rolling Stock! Rolling Stock!

GREASEBALL:
You got no lovers if you got no wheels

GREASEBALL & THE GANG:
Come on and heat me up the way you do
And I can keep it going longer than you
Don't stop now, you gotta keep it going all night

GREASEBALL:
Don't try to show you can go faster than me
This is my back view and it's all you'll see

GREASEBALL & THE GANG:
Don't stop now, you gotta keep it going all night
Rolling stock
We're rolling stock
Rolling stock
We're rolling stock

GREASEBALL:
So get the motion in your wheels somehow
The racing action's starting here and now

GREASEBALL & THE GANG:
Don't stop now, you gotta keep it going all night

GREASEBALL:
Deep down inside you know that I am the best
So come on baby, put me to the test

GREASEBALL & THE GANG:
Don't stop now, you gotta keep it going all night
Rolling stock
We're rolling stock
Rolling stock
We're rolling stock
Rolling stock
We're rolling stock

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
