Breaking the Rules - AC/DC

Album: For Those About to Rock We Salute You

genre: Hard Rock

Black sheep and a renegade
Hot feet in the cool of the shade
Street jungle in the tough child ‘hoods
Examinations done no good
Ghetto bars and hot wired cars
Sneak thieves and cheap cigars
No rebellion, not today
I get my kicks in my own way
Right, ok

Just keep on breaking the rules
Come on, get ready to rule

Tough breaks in the neighborhood
A hard case who’s up to no good
Living like trash, a society rash
Ready to break, and ready to dash
A bad deal and a real rough ride
I’m doing time on the other side
No rebellion, not today
I get my kicks in my own way
Right, ok

Just keep on breaking the rules
Come on, get ready to rule
Tough breaks

They got regulation ties
Regulation shoes
Those regulation fools
With their regulation rules

Just keep on breaking the rules
Come on, get ready to rule

Oh take off your ties and your regulation shoes
You’re nothing but a bunch of regulation fools, yeah
And your damn regulation rules
I’m going to do things my own way
Every day, every day, every day
In every way
I ain’t gonna pay no attention to your rules
