1986 single by ZZ Top
"Rough Boy" is a song by the American rock band ZZ Top. It was released by Warner Bros. Records in the US in March 1986, as the third single from their ninth studio album, Afterburner. The song reached No. 5 on the Album Rock Tracks chart[1] and No. 22 on the Billboard Hot 100,[2] as well as No. 23 in the UK Singles Chart.[3] Unlike the other songs on the album, this song has a much slower tempo and is more of a power ballad.
