Whitesnake

Songwriter: Bernie Marsden David Coverdale Micky Moody

Producer: Martin Birch

I've never had a home sweet home life
An' I don't want a nine to five
So many women I know think they can tie me down
But, I will never let them take me alive I hit an' run
Hit an' run
Hit an' run
Hit an' run
Hit an' run
Now some women say they don't want nothing
But a sweet talkin' bull of a man
I've heard it before, I can't hear it no more
'Cos they all take whatever they can
But, still I want a heart breaker
A love maker, a soul shaker
A women who can turn me on
For a just little hit an' run, hit an' run
She can be a love stealer
A double dealer, a free wheeler
As long as she can turn me on
For just a little hit an' run
A little bit of hit an' run
You can keep your lock and key
No ball and chain can harness me
Take me home tonight, love and treat me right
But in the morning you'll find me gone, I hit an' run
Hit an' run
Hit an' run
Hit an' run

Whitesnake are a rock band formed in England in 1978 by David Coverdale, after his departure from his previous band Deep Purple. Their early material has been compared by critics to the blues rock of Deep Purple, but they slowly began moving toward a more commercially accessible rock style. By the turn of the decade, the band’s commercial fortunes changed and they released a string of UK top 10 albums, Ready an' Willing (1980), Come an' Get It (1981), Saints & Sinners (1982) and Slide It In (1984), the last of which was their first to chart in the US and is certified 2x platinum.
