AC/DC - Nervous Shakedown Lyrics
Freeze said the man cruising the beat
You get your hands up spread your feet
Don't you move an inch I heard him say
Or you'll be doing time until the judgement day
And he said
Cause if you cross my path you'll be doing life
It's a dirty lie
It's a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown)
Another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
Well it's a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown)
We gotta shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
It's lookin' like a set-up
You got a one way ticket to the county hall
When then judge looked high and I looked low
When he smiled at me it was a one man show
He said
2 to 5 the jury decides
Double parole if you survive
It's a dirty lie
It's a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown)
Another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
Well it's a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown)
We gotta shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
Lord they're gonna get you this time
And throw away the key
It's a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown)
Another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
You got a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown)
We gotta shakedown
Lord they're gonna get you this time throw away the key
It's a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown)
Another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
You got a shakedown (and it's a nervous shakedown)
Well it's a shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
Shake it down shake it down (and it's a nervous shakedown)
Well it's a shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
Shake it down shake it down (and it's a nervous shakedown)
It's a shakedown
It's a shakedown
On
You
Yes

AC/DC Nervous Shakedown Comments
This is the way I love to see these guys. Love seeing Angus not in his getup. My favorite post - Bon album.
STAND UP AND BE COUNTED !!!!!
is this the singer scott bob ? Is the one with the uniform on drugs? Is he the one that is a little simple ? Brian young is a good guitar player as is malcolm ...phil rugg is solid on the drums ...and the whole tune is solid
tf hahah
First time hearing this but it’s pretty good
Fantastic track, all time-classic, INSANE vocals!
Rock ir bust
I'm 19 and for me Rock and Metal are everything. Gets me thru tough times, constant headbanging. I pity my friends who don't have good taste in music.
Rock in Rio 1985. More than a million crazy fans... Do you remenber, guys? 😉
AWESOME !!!!!!😁🎈😁🎈😁🎈😁🎈😁🎈😁🎈😁🎈😁🎈😁🎈😁
So ABBA, but I love it,who hate ACDC?
My mom took me to the mall to get my first album. She wouldn't let me get Shout at the Devil because it looked satanic. She grabbed Flick of the Switch and said "what a about this one?".
Underrated song
2019🤟🏼
i clicked this video on accident except it wasnt an accident
Best ever
AC DC IS ROCK 😈🤘
Hardcore!!!!!!
I stole AC/DC albums out of KMart. Went to hardware, got a blade and plyers, Mannnnn, I needed these albums. Hold on someone is knocking on the door.
1:40 dance Angus Young
god Brian is
explosion here !!!!
very underrated song !
for me is one of the best "
Angus looks like jimmy page
Cool!!!
One of my favorite AC/DC songs great riffs and still better then half the stuff coming out today. 🤘🤘🤘
Brian still had his Back in Black voice👍
I LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
The people have shit on the their heads. A work of art like this deserves to have billions of reproductions. AC DC forever
ALWAYS loved this album.
14 years old when this came out and played it till the cassette got wavy!
I think Scott's soul is in to Brian.
Underrated, underrated, underrated.
Beats the living shit out of rap......
Bad Ass😁🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🆒
Phil Rudd plays drums on this whole album, but they left them out of the video and put another drummer in his place... I don't know why they did Phil like that. This is a great track but it's the beginning of the end for the band.
Wore this album out in highschool! Wish this was on the radio! Nervous Shakedown indeed! Sounds like an earthquake!!!🤘😝🤘
Ótima banda
Freeze, said the man cruisin' the beat
You get your hands up and spread your feet
Don't you move an inch, I heard him say
Or you'll be doin' time until the judgment day
And he said, Don't tell me no lies, give me alibis
Cause if you cross my path, you'll be doin' life
It's a dirty lie
It's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
A nervous shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
It's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
We got a shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
Take a dime, said the man, you can make one call
You got a one-way ticket to the County Hall
Well, the judge looked high and I looked low
And when he smiled at me it was a one-man show
He said, Two to five, the jury decides
Double parole if you survive
It's a dirty lie
It's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
A nervous shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
It's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
We got a shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
Law is gonna get you this time
And throw away the key
Shake you down, shake you down
And it's another shakedown
Well it's a shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
Shake you down, shake you down
And it's a nervous shakedown
It's a shakedown
Un Brian ancora vocalmente ultrapotente e gli AC/DC ancora caricati a pallettoni, tosti determinati, troppo forti. 👍👍👍💣💣💣
There are 404 bitches and 16.287 heroes
Brilliant, brings back good memories
Brothers forever!
1:47 Angus, the best
Who is the drummer?
simon wright
Love this jam allways have
Killer tune! Why don’t they play stuff like this on our local radio stations give me a break. Back in Black is a great song shook me All night long is a great song but they’re getting old now it’s time for a nervous shake down 👍
ЭТО ВТОРАЯ ПЕСНЯ. ПЕРВАЯ BADLANDS
This song is too underrated
Mal🙂👏🤟❤️
Many people say the Albums shit...but there's 4 classics on it...
Whats this song about
Great track....AC/DC...THE BEST !!!!!!!!!
I turned this up...my neighbor phoned the cops..cops showed up had a beer...went to neighbours gave them a fine for making crank calls
This albums has BALLS!!!!.
don't you move an inch I heard him say, or you'll be doin time till the Judgement Day
I thought English cops didn't carry guns...
This is lovely tbh !
Who is the drummer in this song Phill?
This is a killer track....if only the radio stations played this stuff....highway to hell gets a little bit old when played everyday.
I bought this album back in '83 when it came out. I was 16 and cranked the hell out of it through my new Fisher speakers! Those 12 woofers were pumping hard! I still have those speakers too along with the album in my closet. I replaced the woofers in '96. The Fisher speakers from '82 still crank...
Demais! !!!
TAKE A DANCE WITH THE MAYOR YOU MAKE ONE CALL.
YOU GOTTA ONE WAY TICKET TO THE COUNTY HALL
WELL THE JUDGE LOOKED HIGH AND I LOOKED LOW.
WHEN HE SMILED AT ME IT WAS A ONE MAN SHOW. Only AC/DC could take such hard and sad circumstances and turn it into poetry.
Who is the drummer? Its neither Phil Rudd nor Chris Slade
Simon Wright
The value time in the great Brian voice
BEST Brian album..
THIS is up with the best Bon album which is POWERAGE..(greatest AC/DC)
Great song, I think 'Flick of the Switch' has aged well, the whole back to basics thing actually sounds more contemporary now than it did in the 80s. Although it's a mixed album. I think part of the reason that gets such a bad press is Malcolm didn't like it much.
Que som foda da porra🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🎸
Mis hijos, nietos y bisnietos van a ser como la abuela van a amar con locura a estos grandes genios del rock y amores míos obvio. Porque los amo 😍😍😍😍😍😍❤
Saludos 🇦🇷 Ac⚡Dc te amo ❤
no wonder they quit putting 1/4" Jack's on electronics
wait a minute......this is real music.
That riff is so fuckin good.
From my point of view Bon was the real front man for the band but Brian did an excellent job to keep them alive. I love listening this band ⚡
ICE agents attempt raids in at least two city neighborhoods; President Trump says roundups will focus on criminals. Another shakedown. Scammers and Amigos run . .run...run...
my god.. brian's voice is sexy as hell. unfreakinbelievable
Between Hells bells and this song I can't choose a favorite
Great brian great others great ac_dc forexer!!!
saludos desde la cabina de codigo subterraneo yehaaa
AC/DC immortelle
Brian absolutely shredded his voice in the early years with AC/DC...and it sounded heavenly didn't it
I just wish Phil Rudd was involved with this album
This is one sweet motherfuking song. Play this in the car cruising head turn :)
Rock on
Brian sounded fucking ace on this album.
I actually forgot about the songs on this album until recently. Good stuff here. :D
There's no debate between the AC DC singers because Bon Scott passed away it's not the same as David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar although David Lee Roth is Van Halen and always will be Van Halen the flick of the switch great kick ass album
angus young is one of the best hard-rock guitarists he lives in Holland and married with a dutch woman ps I am writing a BLOG about schitzophrenia angelwitchvincent1948.blogspot.nl to hear my music on youtube=TheVincent666
AcDc school is electric .
¨Malcolm¨
prequel to "jailbreak"? :D
Hail. 🚨
How does this have more than 370 dislikes dam those people I love this song
Every songs of AC/DC through the years, the albums are great 😝🤟
Malcolm's pose just before the song starts...pure rock n' roll guitar slinger!
Fuckin awesome!!!!
I love you😍#brian
Yep good stuff. I think its the last good album they put out.
If AC/DC plays it, I love it! I blast it as high as it will go! Flick Of The Switch is a bad ass album!
I was in grade 9 when this came out and this was my favourite song on the tape. For me this was their last album. After this, it all sounded the same. RIP Bonny. RIP Mal.
Love ac/dc. Good song off a very good album. Flick is under rated as is fly on the wall. Another doozie off the album is rising power.
The judge looked high and I looked low, the woman smiled at me it was a one man show!
