Biography:
Great White is a hard rock band that formed in 1978 in Los Angeles, California, United States. The band was popular during the late 80s, when their cover of Ian Hunter's "Once Bitten, Twice Shy" became a Top 5 hit in the United States. The band's only constant members have been Jack Russell (vocals) and Mark Kendall (guitar), with the exception of a period between 2000 and 2001 in which Kendall did not perform with the band.
The band continued to release new material into the 1990s, although none of their material charted in the United States.

Wasted Rock Ranger
by Great White
This is the B-side to the Once Bitten Twice Shy single that came out many years ago. It has been stuck in
head for some time now. I hope you all get a kick out of it as well. It sounds great on an acoustic.
anyone knows another way to play I would love to hear your suggestions.
G
Well, I'm a Wasted Rock Ranger, I live a life of danger
D
On the road to find a higher high
D
I don't need no one's affection, All I need is my injection,
G
My out of tune Les Paul will get me by
G
I've been doin' gigs since I was ten and really can't remember when
D
I ever had a dollar to my name
D
My ears are blown, my eyes are red, I've got big holes inside my head
G
From snorting too much crystal and cocaine
G
I have bennies with the mornin' toast, Qualudes with the evenin' roast
D
Assorted snorts of powder in between
D
I don't think a days gone by, That I wasn't drunk or high
G
It's the only way I keep my sanity
G
From Keggers Den to Hootersville, My flamming dreams have topped the bill
D
A thousand empty bottles earned my name
D
Endless dreams of one night stands, Sharing gigs with half-ass bands
G
And all the local groupies lay the same
G
Well I coulda' had a payin' job, workin' for some fucked up slob
D
Wife or family, true security
D
But I left that shit behind, With all that heavy metal grind
G
'Cause Rock & Roll is in my blood to stay (among other things...)
G
Hey! You're a Wasted Rock Ranger, You'll live a life of danger
D
Sing this song and follow it to the end
D
And when you reach number one **You can overdose for fun**
G
And go and visit Jimi and his friends
(whistle)x4
(solo)x8
G
Hey! You're a Wasted Rock Ranger, You'll live a life of danger
D
Sing this song and follow it 'till the end
D
And when we reach number one **We'll all overdose for fun**
G
And we'll hang out with Jimi and his friends (Yee-Haa)
