Cocky Rocky, the rock and roll star
He's got the talent to take him far
Started out playing hotel bars
Cocky Rocky, the rock and roll star
Spent his time just looking for kicks
Whipping out them tricks to pull the chicks
Just have a chance every way he rips
Come on Rocky take me into the night
The neon streets are shining bright
To all them queens you bring the light
That cocky Rocky
His belt is so tight
Hits the stage, the show begins
Dressed in black to make him thin
The speed they flash and when he grins
Sail away Rocky and nobody sings (?)
Come on Rocky and throw the dice
You threw it once, now throw it twice
Heavy boys, they want a slice
They paid their money, they want a choice
Cocky Rocky, the rock and roll star
He's got the talent to take him far
And all he needs is that old guitar
Cocky Rocky, the rock and roll star

Thin Lizzy è un gruppo hard rock irlandese formatosi a Dublino nel 1969. I membri fondatori furono il chitarrista Eric Bell, l'organista Eric Wrixon, il cantante e bassista Philip Lynott e il batterista Brian Downey. Il gruppo ha raggiunto la fama internazionale negli anni '70 con un sound caratterizzato da riff di chitarra potente, melodie orecchiabili e testi spesso ispirati alla mitologia irlandese. Tra i brani più famosi ci sono "The Boys Are Back in Town", "Jailbreak" e "Whiskey in the Jar". Lynott è considerato una figura iconica del rock, noto per il suo carisma e la sua voce potente. Thin Lizzy ha pubblicato numerosi album di successo, tra cui "Fighting" (1974), "Nightlife" (1974) e "Bad Reputation" (1977). Il gruppo si è sciolto nel 1983 dopo la morte di Lynott, ma ha continuato ad avere un seguito fedele negli anni successivi.
