More quotes by David Lee Roth
Nine times out of 10 when people do a tribute album or tribute songs for somebody, it's what I call 'white boys playing reggae'. They know they can't, we know they can't, so they sing like they can't and play like they can't. They gently make fun of the idiom or sing in a false accent.

I can teach you to jump up in five seconds-it takes years to learn how to land properly.
David Lee Roth
People ask me how far I've come. And I tell them twelve feet: from the audience to the stage.

It's not who wants to sleep with you It's who wants to sleep with you again.
David Lee Roth
If you subtracted all of the great artists who never drank, who never went to excess, you wouldn't have any more art left. What kind of poem are you gonna get out of a glass of iced tea?
David Lee Roth
Well a good writer writes, a good musician listens to a lot more than he actually composes, and if you're going to do lyrics - well, there's a Freudian slip. That's not even a slip, that's a Freudian move: I said going to do lyrics. If you really want it to ring true, you'll live it first. Go really get your heart broken!
David Lee Roth
I just wanted to be in show biz. I wanted to make music and sing and dance, tell jokes and stories, make ya smile, make ya cry - and charge you $ 8.50
David Lee Roth
In the United States, you can put on a cowboy hat and join the country-western neighborhood. If you're down below 14th Street in New York City, that's bohemian that's left-wing.
David Lee Roth
Whether I'm on for a day or whether I'm on for a year, at the end of the day, I sing for my dinner.
David Lee Roth
The most important part of any rock song is the guitar solo.
