| SHE'S A ROCKER - V1 take 4 | 3:10 | LM-5 |
| SHE'S A ROCKER - V2 take 6 | 3:18 | LM-5 / ATMF |
| I'M A ROCKER - V3 | 3:32 | RIVER |
Note: V1 and V2 were recorded at the Power Station on December 4, 1979, in the third person ("She's A Rocker"). The only other documented date in the logs is April 10, 1980, which is likely to be related to mixing at Clover Studios in Los Angeles, leaving the recording date of the album cut undocumented.
Studio Sessions: The River
I'm A Rocker |
I got a 007 watch and it's a one and only
It's got a I-Spy beeper that tells me when you're lonely
I got a Batmobile so I can reach you in a fast shake
When your world's in crisis of an impending heartbreak
Now don't you call James Bond or Secret Agent Man
'Cause they can't do it like I can
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) every day
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker)
If you're hanging from a cliff or you're tied to the tracks, girl
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker)
Columbo split and you can't find Kojak
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker)
And true love is broken and your tears are falling faster
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker)
You're suffering from a pain in your heart or some other natural disaster
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker)
Now I don't care what kind of shape you're in
If they put up a roadblock, I'll parachute in
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) I'm in love
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) every day
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) with you
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) yeahhh
Alright
Come on!
???!
So you fell for some jerk who was tall, dark and handsome
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker)
Then he kidnapped your heart and now he's holding it for ransom
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker)
Well like a mission impossible I'm gonna go and get it back
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker)
You know I would'a taken better care of it, baby, than that
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker)
Sometimes I get so hot girl, well, I can't talk
But when I'm with you I cool off
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) and I walk
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) and I talk
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) every day
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) every day
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) every day
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) yeah yeah every day
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) every day
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) yeah yeah every day
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) every day
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) every day
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) every day
(I'm a rocker, baby, I'm a rocker) whoaaa
