Name that tune.

Okay, I've googled 'til the cows came home, with no results, and it is driving me nuts.
I'm trying to find the artist and/or the name of a song.

It's a hard rock song, about 1985 +/- 5 years.
It has growling guitar licks, perfect for my wake-up music.

A few of the scattered lyrics are:

"Maybe it's the moonlight, maybe it's the rock and roll
don't want to be lonely,
don't want to be shot down, shot down,
shot down no more".......

With that MINIMAL information, if anyone can provide any information,
I can guarantee good things will happen !!

......I'll be able to get to work on time. That's a good thing !! (or so they tell me).

Thanks !

PS: it isn't by AC/DC

I googled it and found this. By April Wine Shotdown

Owwwww!

Maybe it's the moonlight, somethin' doesn't feel right
Won't you come along with me, oh yeah
You know I'm not crazy, just a little lazy
Won't you take a chance, won't you come along with me
Oh yeah, yeah, oh yeah

Maybe it's the moonlight, maybe it's the rock 'n' roll, oh yeah
Maybe it's the moonlight, maybe it's the rock 'n' roll, yeah
But I don't wanna be lonely
Don't wanna be shotdown, shotdown, no more, no more
I don't wanna be lonely
Don't wanna be be shotdown, be shotdown

Baby what's your answer, there's somethin' that I'm after
Somethin' I can have for free, oh yeah
Tell me that it's alright, talk about your stage fright
Really got me uptight, baby what you want from me
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah (oh yeah)

Maybe it's the moonlight, maybe it's the rock 'n' roll, oh yeah
Maybe it's the moonlight, maybe it's the rock 'n' roll, oh yeah
But I don't wanna be lonely
Don't wanna be shotdown no more, no more, no more
I don't wanna be lonely
Don't wanna be be shotdown, be shotdown

Hey you

I don't wanna be lonely
Don't wanna be shotdown, shotdown, no more, no more
I don't wanna be lonely
Don't wanna be be shotdown
I don't wanna be lonely
Don't wanna be shotdown no more, no more, no more
I don't wanna be lonely
Don't wanna be be shotdown, be shotdown, be shotdown
Shotdown no more

I could not find a album or year. Hope this helps.

That's it !! Thanks Fireman32 !!

Bad news is: Limewired "Shotdown" and downloaded 4 versions: all had viruses.

Went to Amazon.com, found ONE source for April Wine's album,
"The Whole World's Goin' Crazy" that has the song, "Shotdown".

$50.00 !!

Thanks for getting me in the ballpark; guess I'll just have to keep waking up to "Thunderstruck" by AC/DC for a while.

Glad that was it. Have you tried i-tunes. You might be able to download the song for .99 and burn it to a cd.
