    Lyrics:
    Man eatin' momma, steam driven hammer
    Sorts the men out from the boys
    Takes no messin', all in wrestlin'
    Is one of her pride and joys
    She a classy, flashy lassy
    Imitation sapphire shine
    Two faced liar, full of fire
    But I know the flame is mine
    Rocka rolla woman for a rocka rolla man
    You can take her if you want her
    If you think you can
    Rocka rolla woman for a rocka rolla man
    You can take her if you want her you can
    She's a grip and choke ya
    Heavy smoker
    Wrong side of the law
    Midnight shady
    Good time lady
    Heavy, ready show you what for
    Barroom fighter
    Ten pint a nighter
    Definite ninety-nine
    Diamond cluster
    Knuckle duster
    Feline on the borderline
    Rocka rolla woman for a rocka rolla man
    You can take her if you want her
    If you think you can
    Rocka rolla woman for a rocka rolla man
    You can take her if you want her you can

      Rob with long hair is GR8 to see. I remember a friend's older brother who had this album. I remember that on the back (or on the sleeve), it was BOB Halford, not ROB!! Even on my CD copy it says "Bob". By the time I got into them, he still had had, just not as long. I started with "Sceaming for Vengeance" & "Unleashed in the East" & worked my way backward to this & other early stuff. Know what I found out? I loved it ALL!! Going forward as well, they ARE "METAL GODS" & have a VERY loyal fanbase. This song may not be their best, but it's good (esp for '74), & it helped get to where they are now - & AS a fan, what a ride it's been!! Long hair/short hair - Metal is Metal & They created some of the BEST to have ever been. Peace!!

      Judas Priest were forced to reduce the heaviness of their music and cut any "non-commercial" songs om the first album. The metal is definitely hiding here, but it wasn't until their later albums that they fully got to express it.

      The guitar technology was not yet developed. Modern “heavy” tones didn’t really hit until the 80’s. Early tube amps in particular had low gain (distortion) characteristics even at high volumes. That’s what made historic hard rock/metal so good..the band was limited in gear but unlimited in creativity and TALENT (auto tune sucks!) rock on!

    I am so happy that this was included in the Setlist for the 50 years of Heavy Metal tour, and lucky enough to see it live. This song remains one of my favorite Judas Priest songs, and it’s one that is criminally underrated as with a lot of the material on the Rocka Rolla album.

I saw they also had Rocka Rolla but did not know the songs but figured if I like the 2nd album the 1st one has got to be good too so I did and was not disappointed...went on to buy every album they ever recorded and saw them in concert many times.

      Jeff O if you compare their current fame to that of Zeppelin, Deep Purple and also AC/DC, Maiden or Metallica you’ll notice they’re considerably less popular, especially among young generation which happens to love the last three bands. And by the amount of importance I think Priest is close to the level of Zeppelin and Deep Purple and much higher than the last three.
      Weirdly enough even though Priest gets the recognition they deserve, nowadays they’re way less popular than many bands from the 80s and 90s which were in the Priest’s shade back then. Maybe they lost the marketing game for millennials and gen z to other bands, I don’t know.

    This band stepped out of the gates great. Really talented guitars and vocals, bass and drums. Most bands are lucky to get one top notch guitarist, JP with two, that work together so brilliantly, a real treat.

      TheAxeGrinder He was planning on leaving priest and joining ZZ top. He didn't want a beard though so they didn't let him in.
