Biografia:
One of the key figures of American punk rock in the 1990s and onward, Tim Armstrong is best known as the singer and guitarist with the band Rancid, though his résumé begins years before that band rose to prominence. Born in Oakland, CA, in the fall of 1966, Armstrong was friends since childhood with Matt Freeman, and as teenagers the two became converts to punk rock after seeing the Clash open for the Who in Oakland in 1982. Armstrong and Freeman were also deeply influenced by the British ska revival of the '80s

I'm gonna ride, ride
A D
Up to the tip top, never stop, always drop
A D
One shot, one stop, play the punk rock
A
And when the cops stop
D A
It's a timeless joint set to one drop
D A
And all the girls, you were the one
D A
We stood above everyone
D A
You took it hard girl, you never had fun
D A
So drop your bag girl, please don't run
D A
Ride it up, tie it up, drink it on down
D A
Tip it up, sip it up, kick it uptown
D A
And tell me exactly girl when you come around
D A
Cause I'll wait for you, girl, I won't back down
[Chorus]

Girl I only want what was best for you

This girl's a real heart-breaker

Different dialect, needs a translator
D A
I'll make a choice, not wait for later
D A
Life goes on, no I don't hate her
D A
Hey I get it, I got it, I'm down
D A
Roll it, hit it, kick it around
D A
Haha, I kick it around
D A
But my feet remain planted on the fucking ground
D A
One time heroin, one time gone
D A
First time against it, then you sing along
D A
That's what happens when your life goes wrong
D A
I've got nothing but truth in my song
