Ratt
Ratt is an American heavy metal band that had significant commercial success in the 1980s, with their albums having been certified as gold, platinum, and multi-platinum by the RIAA. The group is perhaps best known for hit singles such as "Round and Round" and "Lay It Down", tracks that ranked on Billboard's top 40 at No. 12 and No. 40, respectively, as well as other songs such as "Wanted Man", "You're in Love" and "Dance". Along with groups such as friendly rivals Mötley Crüe, Ratt has been recognized as instrumental in the formation of the early 1980s Los Angeles glam metal scene, also known as "hair metal" or "pop metal".
The band has continued to tour and record following extended hiatuses and line-up changes, released their latest studio album, Infestation, on April 20, 2010.
History
Early years (1973–1982)
The origins of Ratt go as far back as 1973 in Hollywood, California, with a band called Firedome, founded by singer Stephen Pearcy with a few friends. In 1974 the band broke up, with Pearcy forming Crystal Pystal. The name Crystal Pystal was later changed to Buster Cherry, which turned into Mickey Ratt in 1976.

Ratt (album)
Ratt is the self-titled sixth studio album by the American glam metal band Ratt. Often referred to as "1999" by fans (partially to avoid confusion with their EP, which was also self-titled), this album saw the band's musical direction shift to a more blues-influenced rock sound and further away from their previous glam metal roots. This is the first studio album to feature bassist Robbie Crane.

Give It All
by: RattTaken away on a ride not far from here
Well, no wastin' time, she's got plans for me
She came behind and then showed me her thighs
You know what I mean
Well, no way to say she could win the likes of me, the likes of me
She said, "I'd like to wear you out
And give it all to you, I'll find a reason now
Just give it all, just give it all"
And I want to give you all my love tonight
(Give it all)
Just give a sign to me, I'll make it right
(Give it all)
A fashion plate in a way, she really was
She had style and class, understand she'll pay to dance
She moved my soul, don't you know she's here to please
But I'm on my knees, can't you see, move in on me, move in on me
She said, "I'd like to wear you out
And give it all to you, I'll find a reason now
Just give it all, just give it all"
Give it all
(Give it all)
Give it all
(Give it all)
I said, "Give it all"
(Give it all)
Give it all
(Give it all)
And I want to give you all my love tonight
(Give it all)
Just give a sign to me, I'll make it right
