Highball women that are hot to touch
Legs do the talking, spelling out, “lust”
See the sugar daddies with a sweet tooth and a smile
See what’s hanging off him like an orphaned child
That’s where you’ll find me, standing proud
Playing with girls gonna get you hot
Playing with guns gonna get you shot
Playing with fire gonna heat you up
Playing with me, you’re gonna get the lot
Bring on the showgirls and the debutantes
Late-night waitress in a restaurant
Heading for the clubs and bars with the flashing lights
Looking for the good-time girls in their black nylon tights
Over the barrel, bottoms-up
Playing with girls gonna get you hot
Playing with guns gonna get you shot
Playing with fire gonna heat you up
Playing with me, you’re gonna get the lot
Ooh, river run dry
Yeah-yeah, you’re only playing with fire
Ooh, wild sweet child
Playing with girls
Playing with girls
Playin’
Playin’
Playin’ with girls
Playin’ with girls
Bring on the tall girls, but I’ll take ’em small
I want ’em all up front, I like ’em all
I want to see you strut your stuff
Lose your social grace
You play your cards right and you’ll deal yourself an ace
That’s where you’ll find me standing proud
Playin’ with girls
Playin’ with girls
Playin’ with girls
Playin’ with girls
Like a long girl, short girl
Nothin’ like a bad girl
Lover girl
Just playin’ with a girl
I want all the women in the world
Flaunting Temptation and Rock ‘n’ Roll Attitude
“Playing With Girls” by AC/DC is a high-octane anthem that captures the band’s signature blend of hard rock bravado and unapologetic hedonism. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of nightlife indulgence, brimming with references to flirtation, desire, and the thrill of risk. Through playful and provocative lines, the song explores the wild side of chasing adventure, whether it’s with women, danger, or fire. The recurring motif of “playing” suggests both the excitement and potential consequences of living on the edge, making the track a quintessential expression of AC/DC’s rebellious spirit and tongue-in-cheek humor.
