Tesla - Beer Drinkers and Hell Raisers

Copied!

{Verse 1}
And if you see me walking down the line
With my favorite honky tonk in mind
Well, I'll be here around supper time
With my can of dinner and a bunch of wine

{Chorus}
Beer drinkers and hell raisers, yea
Uh huh huh, baby, don't you want to come with me?

{Verse 2}
And the crowd gets loud when the band gets right
Steel guitar crying through the night
Yea, trying to cover up the corner fight
But everything's cool because they just tight

{Chorus}
Beer drinkers and hell raisers, yea
Huh, baby, don't you want to come with me?
Aah, play it boy

{Verse 3}
The joint was jumping like a cat on hot tin
Lord, I thought the floor was gonna give in
Sounding a lot like they got House Congressional
Because we're experimental and professional

{Chorus}
Beer drinkers and hell raisers, yea
Well, baby, don't you want to come with me?

Biography

edit bio

Tesla is an American heavy metal band with a long and tumultuous history. The band was originally formed in Sacramento, California in late 1981 by bassist Brian Wheat and guitarist Frank Hannon under the name City Kidd. Lead vocalist Jeff Keith, drummer Troy Luccketta, and guitarist Tommy Skeoch joined the band by 1984, completing the lineup that would become known as Tesla.

By 1986, Tesla had shifted from their glam-derived sound to a more 'rootsier' direction and decided to change their name to Tesla. The band quickly gained popularity and by 1990, they were on the rise with hits like "Love Song" and "Signs". However, the band began to show signs of wear and tear, leading to the departure of drummer Troy Luccketta and the introduction of Stefano Pasta as his replacement. Unfortunately, Pasta's time with the band was short-lived as he departed due to personal reasons.

In 1996, Tesla made the difficult decision to disband, with each member pursuing their own solo projects. However, in 2000, they decided to reunite and continue making music together. The reunion was not without its challenges, as guitarist Tommy Skeoch struggled with substance abuse issues and ultimately departed the band in 2006. He was replaced by Dave Rude, who brought new energy and talent to the group.

Despite the ups and downs, Tesla has remained a force in the heavy metal scene, selling over 14 million albums in the United States alone. Their dedication to their music and their fans has solidified their place as one of the most iconic bands in the genre. Tesla's journey is a testament to the power of perseverance and passion in the face of adversity.
