Piece of The Rock

I've got no idea why I'm writing about this, but I'll take that as a good enough reason to write about something. In 1977, Mother's Finest released their album "Another Mother Further."



You could say the main hit was Piece of The Rock. It's a great song just talking about how every man wants his piece of the rock, nobody wants to get left behind. Here's the lyrics:

A millionaire lookin’ for another million dollars
A poor man lookin’ for one
A chainstore owner lookin’ for another store
A hungry manlookin’ for a hamburger bone

(Chorus)
Get it get it get it yeah
Get get get get get ooh get it get it get it
Get a piece of the rock

A rock star lookin’ for another million seller
The DJ say you can’t have none
Now go on and play your disco music
I got to rock ’n roll myself all night long

(Chorus)

Give me a piece of luck
Give me some peace of mind
Give me a piece of yours
Now take a piece of mine

Get it get it get it
Get a piece of rock
Get it get it get it
Get a piece of rock
Get it

Mary had a little lamb
With feet just as white as snow
Everywhere that Mary went
You know the lamb should ‘a go go


Anyways, its just a great old song to rock out to. Check it out if you have never heard of it, if you have, rock on!
