[Verse 1]
Riding a hurricane, tied to a ball and chain
Too much of a good good thing, it kind of stops you in your tracks
How did you ever get this far, now honey don't look back
And you best be believing that all that's good is inside of you
Heh, inside of you, yeah
Ride on a carpet ride, high on the tears you cried
One's just too many and a thousands not enough
And you can't make up your mind playing blind man's bluff
And you best be believing that all that you need is inside of you
Yeah, inside of you

[Chorus]
It ain't enough, I take it all but still it ain't enough
Ain't enough, I got to have it now ain't it tough I got to have it!
It ain't enough, you got no misery cause it ain't enough
Ain't enough, you got to have it cause it ain't enough
Oh shit

[Verse 2]
You know another touch is easy, try and reach the sky
And though you can't get much more higher than you never tried
When you die you're not forsaken
Best be of all the things that you're not taking

[Chorus]
Ain't enough, I take it all but still it ain't enough
I got to have it ain't it tough
I got to have it

[Bridge]
Ain't enough, I take it all but still it ain't enough
I got to have it

[Chorus]
Ain't enough, I take it all but still it ain't enough
I got to have it ain't it tough
I got to have it

[Outro]
Ain't enough, I really got to have it[x8]

Aerosmith

Aerosmith is an American rock band, sometimes referred to as “The Bad Boys from Boston” and “America’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band.” Formed in 1970, its founding members are Steven Tyler (vocals, keyboards, harmonica), Tom Hamilton (bass), Joey Kramer (drums), Joe Perry (guitar, vocals) and Brad Whitford (guitar).

The band released their eponymous debut studio album in 1973 featuring the single “Dream On,” which remains one of their most popular songs. Their next four albums made them rock stars across the US and Canada, spawning the hits “Sweet Emotion”, “Last Child”, “Walk This Way”, “Back In The Saddle”, “Draw The Line”, and a cover of “Come Together” for the Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Soundtrack.

Before the release of their fifth album Draw The Line, the band’s substance abuse began to destroy them. Perry quit after a backstage fight with Tyler in 1979, and Whitfield left two years later. Despite moderate sales, the band’s fifth and sixth albums were considered flops when compared to the band’s past accomplishments. When Perry and Whitfield returned in 1984, their eighth album Done With Mirrors was also deemed unsuccessful despite strong reviews. Doug Herzog (MTV, VH1)
