Yankee Rose Lyrics

Are you ready for the new sensation?
Well, here's the shot heard 'round the world
All you back room boys salute when her flag unfurls

Well, guess who's back in circulation?
Now, I don't know what you may have heard
But what I need right now's the original good time girl

She's a vision from coast to coast
Sea to shining sea
Hey, sister, you're the perfect host
Show me your bright lights in your city lights, all right
I'm talkin' 'bout the Yankee Rose
Bright lights in your city lights, all right
I'm talkin' 'bout it

When she walks, watch, the sparks will fly
Fire crackin' on the fourth of July
No sad songs tonight, something's in the air

Real state of independents
So pretty when her rockets glare
Still provin' any night that her flag is still there

She's a vision from coast to coast
Sea to shining sea
Hey, sister, you're the perfect host

Show me your bright lights in your city lights, all right
I'm talkin' 'bout the Yankee Rose
Bright lights in your city lights, all right
I'm in love with the Yankee Rose

Ah, she's beautiful, alright
Mmm, nothin' like her in the whole world
Yeah, she's right on time, I'm on the case
Pick up the phone, no time to waste
She got the beat and here's a little bit comin' your way

Bright lights, city lights
Bright lights, city lights
Bright lights, city lights
Bright lights, city lights

Enuff Z'Nuff is a power pop/hard rock band that was formed in 1984 in Blue Island, Illinois, United States by Chip Z'Nuff (bass) and Donnie Vie (vocals). The group has released twelve studio albums as well as five live albums as of 2014, and they're perhaps best known for their hit singles "Fly High Michelle" and "New Thing" from their self-titled debut album, tracks that remain classic rock favorites. Despite becoming popular during the glam metal movement of the 80s, the band has little in common with many of those artists and has continued to record and tour since its formation, with the group being notable for its internal songwriting (influenced by classic pop such as The Beatles).

Coming out the gate with 1989's 'Enuff Z'nuff', the group received critical praise, with Allmusic saying that the band "deserves more respect than they'll probably ever receive." The album hit the #74 slot on the Billboard 200 top albums chart, with "Fly High Michelle" and "New Thing" both being top 40 hits on the Mainstream Rock chart. Sadly, though musically being inspired by bands such as Cheap Trick, Enuff Z'nuff's record label decided to present them in garish, tie-die outfits and foster a related glam image that the group resented.
