Lyrics
I get up and nothin’ gets me down
You got it tough, I’ve seen the toughest around
And I know, baby, just how you feel
You got to ro-o-oll with the punches and get to what’s real
Ah, can’t you see me standin’ here?
I got my back against the record machine
I ain’t the worst that you’ve seen
Ah, can’t you see what I mean?
Ah, might as well jump (jump!)
Might as well jump
Go ahead and jump (jump!)
Go ahead and jump
Aaa-ohh, hey you!
Who said that?
Baby, how you been?
You say you don’t know
You won’t know until you begin
So can’t you see me standing here?
I got my back against the record machine
I ain’t the worst that you’ve seen
Ah, can’t you see what I mean?
Ah, might as well jump (jump!)
Go ahead and jump
Might as well jump (jump!)
Go ahead and jump
Jump!
Might as well jump! (Jump!)
Go ahead and jump
Get it and jump! (Jump!)
Go ahead and jump
Jump!
Jump!
Jump!
Jump!

Today’s supposed rock stars cannot hold a candle to David Lee Roth, interviewed here in all his colourful glory in 1984 with Van Halen at their commercial peak. Understanding the essence of rock’n’roll as entertainment, this eminently quotable frontman with brains to match his brazen rock-star persona is never less than hilariously entertaining!
Goin’ Crazy is a single off of David Lee Roth’s first full length solo album after Van Halen in 1986.
