David Lee Roth (born October 10 1954 in Bloomington, Indiana) is an American rock vocalist, songwriter, rock climber, adventurer, actor, author, and former radio personality, perhaps best known for his work with the band Van Halen and his fast-talking, oversized personality. He left Van Halen at the pinnacle of his tenure with them in 1985 (being replaced by Montrose's Sammy Hagar) and formed a solo band. After some time spent performing lounge jazz to small audiences, Roth recruited a wondergroup of Steve Vai (guitar), Billy Sheehan (bass) and Greg Bisonette (drums), and released the wildly successful 'Eat 'em and Smile' album in 1986. For a while, Roth's success equaled that of his own band; but while Van Halen became huge with Hagar behind the mic, DLR's star faded over time. After the impressive dream-team line-up of the David Lee Roth band imploded due to ego, guitar prodigy Jason Becker (formerly of Cacophony) was bought into the fold in 1989.

Hey, You Never Know Lyrics

David Lee Roth

I'm laying naked with ya
After making love
I caught a cold
I barely made it home
You said you loved me only
I felt no pain
And then I crashed my rent-a-car in the pouring rain
Seen it on a billboard
And I believe it's so
It said, "The only thing you know for certain
is 'Hey, you never know'"
My friend Jerry's feet are achin'
Says he's hittin' bottom
Says it's a sex problem
He told me so
I told him
"Jerry ain't the lovin' that you're makin' buddy
It's layin' out all night
And lookin' for it that makes you slow
Want some advice
And it's free for a reason you know
They say you only live twice
I said, "Hey, you never know" And the hula girls go...(ahhh)
You never, I said you never, never,
You Never Know
I'll make suggestions honey
You make the choices
Your Kodak moment's comin'
I'll keep the motor
