Gas in the Tank Lyrics

Pour hammer riffs all over me
A little dirty, a little cheap
Move your fingers up and down the fret
The V is flyin' without a net

Black me in and black me out
The king of riffs is back in town
Who is up for a deadly sting?
Black me out and black me in

Let's play it louder, play it hard
Laid back and a little dark
Give me a dirty riff, my friend
There's gotta be more gas in the tank

Gas in the tank

Sign your name across my skin
We're born to lose, we live to win
There's lots of gas in my Trans Am
It's wham bam, thank you mam

Pour hammer riffs all over me
A little dirty, a littlе cheap
Only rock and no bling bling
Black me out and black me in

See Scorpions Live

Get tickets as low as $75

Lеt's play it louder, play it hard
Laid back and little dark
Give me a dirty riff, my friend
There's gotta be more gas in the tank

Louder, play it hard
Best friends will never part
So give me a dirty hook, my friend
There's gotta be more gas in the tank

You want it louder?
(Yeah, yeah)
Louder?
(Yeah, yeah)
You want it louder?
(Yeah, yeah)
So much louder
(Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah)

Let's play it louder, play it hard
Laid back and little dark
Give me a dirty riff, my friend
There's gotta be more gas in the tank

Louder, play it hard (Play it louder)
Best friends will never part (Will never part)
So give me a dirty hook, my friend (A dirty hook, my friend)
There's gotta be more gas in the tank

Gas in the tank
G-G-Gas in the tank
Lots of gas in the tank

What did Scorpions say about "Gas in the Tank"?

Klaus Meine:

Usually, [guitarist] Rudolf [Schenker] sends me some demos and I start writing lyrics, but this time I started writing lyrics first, so it was all upside down. I sent them to Rudolf when he was down at his studio in Thailand, and he would come back with some killer riffs. It was like, ‘Hey, there’s still gas in the tank, my friend!’ So we rocked through this very difficult lockdown times.
