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.

Last Call Lyrics

David Lee Roth

Aww right!
Long shot lover was a real bun buster
Talkin' lethal fantasy
Cos the next best thing was nothin' much
And the next best thing was me
Well, I was workin' on approval
So I got her on the rocks
And I put her on the tip of my tongue
I said, "Don't get smart with an angel, babe
You ain't the girl next door
An' we ain't done"
Wow! It's a simple fantasy
Last Call
An' I don't need no drink
This is Last Call
Could be later than you think
Last Call
Before they hit the lights
This is Last Call
But that don't mean goodnight
I'm a real good loser
Cause I get a lot of practice
With the breaks
When they're beatin' my boys
So I asked her,
"What's the only thing to do in this town?"
An' she gives me a multiple choice!
It's like Peter Pan an' Tinkerbell
Poised on the perverbial brink
I asked her,
"How the hell you get in those tight blue jeans?"
She said,
"For starters you could buy me a drink..."
Gotta stoop to conquer me
Last Call
An' I don't need no drink
This is Last Call
Could be later than you think
Last Call
Wow! Before they hit the lights
This is Last Call
But that don't mean goodnight
I'm a real good loser
Cause I get a lot of practice
With the breaks
When they're beatin' my boys
So I asked her,
"What's the only thing to do in this town?"
An' she gives me a multiple choice...
It's like Peter Pan an' Tinkerbell
Poised on the perverbial brink
I asked her,
"How the hell you get in those tight blue jeans?"
She said,
"For starters you could buy me a drink..."
It was...-ac
