Razed on rock

I was born and raised
With the drumsticks in my hands...
My mama papa told me to rock this southern land

Drummin’ up an alibi
I left school, didn’t even try
Hey rocksteady I set the pace
Friends of mine got off their face
Out on the road and havin’ fun
I kept on smashin’ those double drums
No guarantee or no play
I started to rock my life away

Razed on rock
Razed on rock
Razed on rock
I was razed on rock

Dreams fall through holes in my pockets
Carrying this heavy load
With promises your gonna make it
Hang my walks with gold

Backstage pussy with looks that kill
Just drank my last dollar bill
Ego’s burnin’ fire red rock ’n’ roll gone to my head
They love ya hate ya love ya hate ya
Record companies try and rape ya
All alone or flyin’ high
I’m gonna rock untill I die

Razed on rock
Razed on rock
Razed on rock
I was razed on rock

Dreams fall through holes in my pockets
Carrying this heavy load
With promises your gonna make it
Hang my walks with gold

Razed on rock
Razed on rock
Razed on rock
I was razed on rock

Razed on rock
Razed on rock
Razed on rock
I was razed on rock

Struck

Down in the valley I was lookin’ for freedom
I found Eve in the garden of Eden
Seven sons and seven seals
Mother Nature won’t make a deal
Remember your first kiss and hot embrace
Invisible scar across my face

Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning
I was
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning

Struck
Struck
Lightning don’t care if you live or you die
Struck
Oh yeah struck
Struck
Lightning don’t care if you live or you die

Storm shot cannon balls down the line
Bolts of lightnin’ split my mind
There’s no warnin’ no sense at all
Get inside and a bolt the door
Clouds of darkness over me
The sky has cracked can’t you see

Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning
I was
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning

Struck
Struck
Struck
Struck
Struck
Struck
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning
I was
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning

Black ink sky
Voice of thunder
Thors hammer gonna pull me under
Still alive in this broken tomb
Gonna blow my trumpet to the moon

Struck
Struck
Lightning don’t care if you live or you die
Struck
Oh yeah struck
Struck
Lightning don’t care if you live or you die
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning
Struck by lightning

A fallen rockstar
Don’t you crucify him
Just a fallen rockstar
Pain’s locked inside of him
Fallen rockstar
Never walkin’ holy ground
Fame weighs heavy when he starts comin’ down

Blinded by stardust
Chained to the crowd
Watch out he’ll hypnotize ya
But he won’t let you down
Had no way of knowing
What it was you fought
Set peoples lives alright with happiness you brought

Fallen rockstar
Don’t you crucify him
Fallen rockstar
Pain’s locked inside of him
Fallen rockstar
Never walkin’ holy ground
Fame weighs heavy when he starts comin’ down

Just a fallen rockstar
Fallen rockstar

Caught in a crossfire
You didn’t understand
Stretched out his feelings
With his guitar in his hands
Reality or so it seemed
Was like some far off land
Seven years of bad luck takes its toll on a man

Oh takin’ drugs and drinkin’ wine
He’ll bent on self destruction
Tryin’ to find some peace of mind
But loves a four leaf clover
Remember when you started out
Acting like some muther
Now you’ve plunged into self-doubt
Lost your inner power

Fallen rockstar
Don’t you crucify him
Fallen rockstar
Pain’s locked inside of him
Fallen rockstar
Never walkin’ holy ground
Fame weighs heavy when he starts comin’ down

Just a fallen rockstar
Just a fallen rockstar
A fallen rockstar
Fallen rockstar
Just a fallen rockstar
Fallen rockstar
Fallen rockstar
Just a fallen
Just a fallen

Hi on thunder mountain
Thristles meet the sea
Mist that flows forever
True love waits for he
Scarred is the valley of fighting men
Ravens watch from the tree
Oaths are broken and words they cast
A future destiny

Brave Heart
Can you hear the wind a callin’
Brave Heart
Whispers your kingdoms fallin’
Brave Heart
Point your arrows to the sky
Brave Heart
Tomorrow you may die

Watch in tumblin’ waters
Love hides to be freed
Meet me in the shadows dark
Spirits beckon me
Keep watch, keep watch they’ll take you down
Slain by jealousy
Fightin’ for your sacred ground
Honour bestowed on thee

Brave Heart
Can you hear the wind a callin’
Brave Heart
Whispers your kingdoms fallin’
Brave Heart
Point your arrows to the sky
Brave Heart
Tomorrow you may die

Disorder at the border
My passport’s not in order
Tried to drag me off to jail
Struck by paranola and I can’t afford a lawyer
I made a run couldn’t reach my bail

Black dog, black dog
I gotta a hell hound on my trail
Black dog, black dog
He’s got teeth like coffin nails

Thumbed down Mack thermadine
Rough ridin’ chewin’ up my spine
Diesel burnin’ up my trail
I’m gonna get some locomotion
In all that truckstop commotion
Freedom is a costly tale

Black dog, black dog
I gotta a hell hound on my trail
Black dog, black dog
He’s got teeth like coffin nails

I’m gonna keep on runnin’ till the nightime turns to dust
Scarred from the memory of a hometown bust
I’m gonna keep on runnin’ till my train runs outta track
Oh you know I love ya honey but I can never look back

Black dog, black dog
I gotta a hell hound on my trail
Black dog, black dog
He’s got teeth like coffin nails

Black dog, black dog
I gotta a hell hound on my trail
Black dog, black dog
He’s got teeth like coffin nails

Destiny sets no wind for your sails
Row and row and bail and bail
When men and ships and waters collide
Towed by the rope of a mystical tide

Lyin’ on deck with your eyes to the sky
Prayin’ to love ones you've left behind
Your tongues a swellin’ with thoughts you may die
Man over board up went the cry

Send ’em out to Van Diemen’s land
Mother England’s cruel, cruel plan
Send ’em out to Van Diemen’s land
Mother England’s cruel, cruel plan

Some sent for murder, some sent for wine
Being outspoken a capital crime
Some sent for murder, some sent for wine
Being outspoken a capital crime

In shackles and chains they cleared the land
With blisters and blood and despair on their hands
Sun burns ’em red with skin so pale
Heat exhaustion and lashes prevail

Surrounded by sea on this forsaken land
Prisoners of fate it's man against man
And nobody’s askin’ where have you been
This nightmare is real, Oh God save the queen

Send ’em out to Van Diemen’s land
Mother England’s cruel, cruel plan
Send ’em out to Van Diemen’s land
Mother England’s cruel, cruel plan

Some sent for murder, some sent for wine
Being outspoken a capital crime
Some sent for murder, some sent for wine
Being outspoken a capital crime

Some sent for murder, some sent for wine
Being outspoken a capital crime
Some sent for murder, some sent for wine
Being outspoken a capital crime

Send ’em out to Van Diemen’s land
Mother England’s cruel, cruel plan
Send ’em out to Van Diemen’s land
Mother England’s cruel, cruel plan

Gonna send ’em out
Gonna send ’em out
Gonna send ’em out
Send ’em out
Gonna send ’em out

Well a shot fired out with no warning
Shot fired out with no warning
Shot fired out with no warning
A shot fired out with no warning

Out on the range for a dollar a day
Out on the range in the morning
Where your mind cracks like lightning and opens to the sun
Shot fired out with no warning

Well a shot fired out with no warning
Shot fired out with no warning
Shot fired out with no warning
Shot fired out with no warning

Gotta hold your fire
Hold your fire
Hold your fire
Hold your fire

As they lay my body down
The cactus cry forbidden ground
Bleedin’ hard internally
Freedom was the death of me
Freedom was the death of me
Freedom was the death of me

Well a shot fired out with no warning
Shot fired out with no warning
Shot fired out with no warning
Shot fired out with no warning

Shot fired out
Well a shot fired out with no warning

Sweet lemonade
She’s like a handgrenade
She don't like it when I move too slow
She’ll intoxicate ya
Shiver, shake vibrate ya
Whips me like a horse

Found out sooner or later
Her daddy was a gator
With his church made out of mud

Gettin’ her rocks off she’s alright
Whipped me like a horse last night
Rode me till the mornin’ light
Whipped me like a horse last night

Whipped me like a horse
Whipped me like a horse

Well the river was wide
She kept me up all night
Better go with the flow
She got me runnin’ around
Like a sidewalk clown
But I’ve never missed a show

I’ll juggle hot potatoes
I’ll rob parkin’ meters
Just to win her love

Gettin’ her rocks off she’s alright
Whipped me like a horse last night
Rode me till the mornin’ light
Whipped me like a horse last night

Whipped me like a horse
Whipped me like a horse

Gettin’ her rocks off she’s alright
Whipped me like a horse last night
Rode me till the mornin’ light
Whipped me like a horse last night

One look in her eyes
I feel paralyzed
Spinnin’ out of control
Down on the borderline
I was feelin’ fine
Till she rode off on a shovel head stud

Sweet lemonade
She’s like a handgrenade
She don't like it when I move too slow
She’ll intoxicate ya
Shiver, shake vibrate ya
Whips me like a horse
Whips me like a horse

Whips me like a horse baby
Whippin’ me like a horse

Better stop whippin’ me, whippin’ me, whippin’ me baby
Better stop whippin’ me, whippin’ me, whippin’ me baby

You know I like it, I like it a lot
You know I like it, I like it a lot
A little bit softer now
A little bit softer now
A little bit harder now
A little bit harder now

Harder now
Harder now
Harder now
Harder now

I was born and raised
Drumsticks in my hands
My mama papa told me
Rock this southern land

Razed on rock
Keepin’ crazy company
Razed on rock
People handin’ sympathy
Razed on rock
Nothin’ else that I could be
Razed on rock
It’s the only life for me
