Stuff Upper Lip
AC/DC Tribute Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, I was out on a drive, on a bit of a trip
Looking for thrills to get me some kicks
Now, I warn you ladies, I shoot from the hip
I was born with a stiff, stiff upper lip

Like a dog and I howl
I bite everything
And I'm big and I know
And I'll ball your thing

I keep a stiff upper lip
And I shoot from the hip
I keep a stiff upper lip
And I shoot, and I shoot
Shoot from the hip
Yeah, I shoot from the hip

Now listen

Well, I'm working it out
And I've done everything
And I can't reform, no
Can you feel my sting?

Babe, I keep a stiff upper lip
And I shoot from the hip
I keep a stiff upper lip
And I shoot, and I shoot
And I shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot from the hip

Well, I'm out on the prowl
And I'll ball your thing
I got the teeth that'll bite you
Can you feel that sting?

Babe, I keep a stiff upper lip
And I shoot from the hip
I keep a stiff upper lip
And I shoot, shoot
Shoot from the hip

I got a (stiff upper lip)
Better believe me (stiff upper lip)
Coming down (stiff upper lip)
See my (stiff upper lip)
Yeah, I got a (stiff upper lip)
Stiff upper lip
Stiff upper lip
I got a stiff upper lip
I got a stiff upper lip
Stiff upper lip
I got a stiff upper lip
And I shoot
And I shoot




And I shoot
Shoot from the hip

I could listen to Phil play that 4/4 all day every day

There's just something about his playing that makes it so much more fun to listen to than when someone else does it

Hohoho THAT’s F. TRUE!!!!!💥💫

WOW! Brian Johnson might be no Bon Scott, but Bon Scott is no Brian Johnson either. Nor should they even be compared. Both kings of their own mountain IMO.
ACDC simply KICKS ASS!!!

Regardless of who you prefer, can we all agree that they're both miles better than Dave Evans?

Ettaoudi Anas

Indeed!
