Counting Crows — Shake Some Action lyrics

(original by Flamin' Groovies)

Shake Some Action
I will find a way
To get to you some day.
Oh, but I, babe,
I'm so afraid I'll fall,
Yeah. Now can't you hear me call?
Shake some action's what I need
To let me bust out at full speed.
I'm sure that's all you need
To make it all right.
It's taken me so long
To get where I belong
Oh, but, oh, please don't send me back that way, yeah.
For I will make you pay. (refrain)
If you don't dig what I say
Then I will go away.
And I won't come back this again.
No. 'Cause I don't need a friend.
(refrain)
(guitar solo again)
