Rock til ya die

Your eyes fixed on the setting sun
Journey has just begun
Searching for a land of gold
Fire burning in your soul

Fire on the mountain clearly to see
Fire on the mountain is calling me
Fire on the mountain hills are burnin
Fire on the mountain the smoke is churnin

The temperature’s rising
On the devil’s horizon
Walk into the danger zone
Gotta find the mother load

Fire on the mountain clearly to see
Fire on the mountain is calling me
Fire on the mountain hills are burnin
Fire on the mountain the smoke is churnin

Fire on the mountain clearly to see
Fire on the mountain is calling me
Fire on the mountain hills are burnin
Fire on the mountain the smoke is churnin

Hey
Hey
Hey
Yeah

To the horizon paved in gold
The sun is cryin, night grows cold
Moon is yearning, lights up the track
Some of the men ain’t comin back

Water, sweet water
Water, gimme water
Water, to find water
Water, gimme water

Fire on the mountain clearly to see
Fire on the mountain is calling me
Fire on the mountain hills are burnin
Fire on the mountain the smoke is churnin

Oh well the sun is cryin
Hh the moon is yearnin
Oh the sun is cryin
Oh the moon is yearnin
Calling me, calling me, calling me, calling me
Oh the sun is cryin
Oh the moon is yearnin

Scream the news right across the land
It’s comin back to stay
Party paralysed through the night
The rock came back today
Been away for far too long
It seems a thousand years
With all the shit the radio plays
It’s a wonder that I’m still here

Rockpile, Rockpile
Don’t end up on the Rockpile
Rockpile, Rockpile
Don’t end up on the Rockpile

Nitro was a goodtime guy
He could take it all the way
He stopped rockin’ in 99
When the rock, it went away
Burnin on the Rockpile
Drugs best left alone
Casualty of rock n roll
Rockpile, it starts to grow

Rockpile, Rockpile
Don’t end up on the Rockpile
Rockpile, Rockpile
Don’t end up on the Rockpile

Rock came back today
Rock came back today
Never go away
Rock came back today
Rock came back today
Rock came back today
Never go away
Rock came back today

Oh I’m comin down now mama

Thunder of the kick drum
Begins to start the show
Bass slams down & starts to grind
The rock it starts to grow
Screaming with their feedback
Guitars hold back the tide
Smoke pours from the amp stacks
The Rock it comes alive

Rockpile, Rockpile
Don’t end up on the Rockpile
Rockpile, Rockpile
Don’t end up on the Rockpile
Rockpile, Rockpile
Don’t end up on the Rockpile
Rockpile, Rockpile
Don’t end up on the Rockpile
Yeahhhh

Rock came back today
Rock came back today
Never go away
Rock came back today
Rock came back today
Rock came back today
Never go away
Never go away
Rock
Rock
Rock
Let’s rock

Don’t get caught up on the rockpile
Yeah

Thunder and lighting came down from the sky
Cut in the dark and I don’t know why
I crossed my heart that I didn’t die
Stop living in fear for the rest of my life

Give me a switchblade in the morning
Give me a switchblade in the night
With my switchblade I’ll take possession
Take back my life
In the end, with a switchblade knife, knife

Angels of mercy are flying around me
Washing the blood from the blade still in me
It was cold, it was hard, it cut me like butter
My spirit, it rose, pulled me up from the gutter

Give me a switchblade in the morning
Give me a switchblade in the night
With my switchblade I’ll take possession
Take back my life
In the end, with a switchblade knife, knife

It was a rainy forecast the night you cut my heart
The moon shone down, the blade glistened in the dark
Thunder and lightening smashed me to the ground
Lying in a pool of blood with my angels flying around
Lying in a pool of blood with my angels flying around

Thunder and lightening came down from the sky
Cut in the dark and I don’t know why
I crossed my heart that I didn’t die
Stop living in fear for the rest of my life

Give me a switchblade in the morning
Give me a switchblade in the night
With my switchblade I’ll take possession
Take back my life
In the end, with a switchblade knife
In the end, with a switchblade knife
Oh you cut me baby, you cut my heart
Oh you cut me baby, right from the start
Yeah you cut me baby, with your switchblade knife
Oh you cut me baby, outta your life
Yeeeeeeah, Oooooh
Yeeeeeeah, Oooooh
Oh you cut me baby... knife
Oh you cut me baby

Is this the place
That public disgrace
Let’s all get shit faced

There’s talk of a place but I ain’t yet seen it
They rock 24 hours, you’ve gotta believe it
The girls they wear their guitars on their hip
You better be fast on this wild west trip

Is this the place
A public disgrace
They all get shit faced
They wanna turn you on in Rocktown Rocktown
Rocktown Rocktown
Rocktown Rocktown
They party real hard in Rocktown

Met her on the dance oor on sunset strip
Said she wanted to fuck me and then gave me lip
Seemed so surprised when I jumped in her car
Well I’m off to a place now it isn’t too far

Is this the place
A public disgrace
They all get shit faced
They wanna turn you on in Rocktown Rocktown
Rocktown Rocktown
Rocktown Rocktown
They party real hard in Rocktown

I don’t wanna leave here
Cause I’m addicted to it
Wild women, booze and song
Turn my lights on

Well the population is a 110
They’re out on the streets and they’re raging again
No law and order needed so far
All the cops are crooked and the town rocks hard

Is this the place
A public disgrace
They all get shit faced
They wanna turn you on in Rocktown Rocktown
Rocktown Rocktown
Rocktown Rocktown
They party real hard in Rocktown

I don’t wanna leave here
Cause I’m addicted to it
Paramedics are on hold
This Rocktown can’t be controlled

Ouch
Is this the place they call Rocktown?

Geronimo knew he had to go
When the train pulled out real slow
He’d lost his mojo
He was broke inside
To do or to die
In the blinking of an eye
He would never cry
He was broke inside

And hail to the people that loved him now
And curse all the people that wrecked him down
He had a warrior soul and he set his people free

He was a revolutionary
He was a revolutionary
He was a revolutionary, oh to me oh oh oh ooooh

With his world in chains he could not run
Staring at the barrel of his loaded gun
When the sun went down, he kissed the ground and prayed
In the still of the night
He woke up in fright
His spirit had taken flight
He was broke inside

And hail to the people who loved him now
And curse the people who wrecked him down
Had a warrior soul and set his people free

He was a revolutionary
He was a revolutionary
He was a revolutionary, oh to me oh oh oh ooooh

And hail to the people that loved him now
And curse the people that wrecked him down
He had a warrior soul and he set his people free

Then came the final test
At his gravesite they molest
Legend says, his bones unrest at Yale

He was a revolutionary
He was a revolutionary
He was a revolutionary, oh to me oh oh oh ooooh
Oh to me yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Only takes one man to start a revolution
Geronimo was a revolution
Geronimo was a revolution
Geronimo was a revolution
Hey yeah, oooohoohooo oooohoohooo

Don’t give me no water
Don’t give me no wine
I live on pure sympathy
Drinkin Mescal 109%

I washed away my baby
I washed away my life
But I sure can’t put out this fire
Drinkin Mescal 109

Reach, reach for the bottle
Oh reach Mescal 109
Come on reach, reach for the bottle
Come on reach Mescal 109
Start all over again, Start all over again

Nightime comes and I’m ready to rock
Daytime comes and I’m sleepin’
Who or what’s at the end of the road
I don’t care cause I’m peakin

Reach, reach for the bottle
Oh reach Mescal 109
Come on reach, reach for my bottle
Come on reach Mescal 109
Start all over again, Start all over again
Start all over again, Start all over again

Wew hooo, wew hooo
Wew hooo, wew hooo, I’m howlin’

Oh Lock me up with your ball and chain
Throw away my hearts desire
It’s the only way that I wanna live
Racing to my funeral pyre

Reach, reach for the bottle
Oh reach Mescal 109
Come on reach, reach for the bottle
Come on reach Mescal 109
Start all over again, Start all over again
Start all over again, Start all over again

Let’s hear some blues

Just a one more day, I live to drink again

Catch me baby
Before I hit the ground
I party hardy
All over town
Oh take me back
Stop me running wild
Just a kick my ass now
For a little while

If I follow you home will you keep me
If I follow you home will you keep me
I’ll follow you anywhere you lead me
Just don’t lock me up and defeat me
Defeat me

I’m too rough too ready
And I ain’t no saint
All that cloak and dagger
Was your mistake
Well our loves too strong
We can not be friends
Let’s try again baby
Before our hearts won’t mend

Getting hurt is part of lovin’
It happens all the time
Lets pretend that we’ve just met
And leave our past behind

If I follow you home will you keep me
If I follow you home will you keep me
I’ll follow you anywhere you lead me
Just don’t lock me up and defeat me
Defeat me

Don’t you lock me up and throw away the key
Don’t you lock me up and make a prisoner out of me
Better watch what your doing
You’ll tear us both apart
Better watch what your doing
You’ll shatter both our hearts

If I follow you home will you keep me
If I follow you home will you keep me
I’ll follow you anywhere you lead me
Just don’t lock me up and defeat me
Defeat me

Don’t you throw away that key baby

When Viking’s say goodbye
Tears fall from the sky
To face the world to die
And to know he had to do it
To battle sword and foe
With the crossbow of your soul
Fire breathes deep delight
Gives you strength in which to fight

With hearts ablaze, metals warm and blood is cold
With hearts ablaze, driven by your ancient soul
With hearts ablaze, now you conquer the unknown
With hearts ablaze, metals warm and blood is cold

In your dreamboat safe and long
Ride the rhythm of your song
The wind is in your sails
Destiny... Impails, your love

With hearts ablaze, metals warm and blood is cold
With hearts ablaze, driven by your ancient soul
With hearts ablaze, now you conquer the unknown
With hearts ablaze, metals warm and blood is cold

His spirits speak, come back to me

Fortune favours the brave
Or to die in a shallow grave
With treasures rich in gold
And maidens white as snow
Steal it all away, steal it all away
Yeah you gotta steal it all away
Steal it all away
Get back home someday
Steal it all away

Land ho! Land ho!
Land ho! Land ho!

Never too late to love somebody
Never too late to change your mind
Down at the crossroads of tomorrow
Destiny plays its cosmic rhyme
Yeahhhhhh.........

I never thought I’d meet a heart of gold
I never dreamed of knowing which way to go
When someone comes along and opens up your soul
That’s your sunrise

Throw away your locks and all your sorrow
Cast aside your bleeding doubt
Just a smile puts you in motion
Love will finally seek you out

Never too late to love somebody
Never too late to change your mind
Down at the crossroads of your tomorrow
Destiny plays its cosmic rhyme
Yeahhhhhh.........

Love will finally seek you out
Love will finally seek you out
Love will finally seek you out
Love will finally seek you out

Love will finally seek you out
Love will finally seek you out
Love will finally seek you out
Love will finally seek you out

Hey yeah alright alright
Yeah alright alright
Shout out loud a face in the crowd
In the name of rock n roll
Come on feel the drum pounding on your soul
Too loud, the bells will toll
But you won’t run and hide
Come on rock this world hard before you die
You know you gotta do it
You know you have to try
Fight for what ya doin’
Rock hard til ya die

Rock til ya die, Rock til ya die
Rock til ya die, Rock til ya die

When your back’s against the wall
And you’re just too high to fall
Better learn to defend yourself
Gotta come out ghting when you hear them ring that bell
And you know you’ve gotta do it
You know you gotta try
Fight for what ya doin
Rock hard til ya die

Rock til ya die, Rock til ya die
Rock til ya die, Rock til ya die

When I think about all the love I left behind
And I ponder all those friends that were once mine
As I wander through the chapels of my mind
Through the old dreams, like crystal bullets all come to life

Ride like the wind, sit hard in the saddle
Dodgin the stones thrown by the rabble
Victory will come with your battles
Oh oh oh
Shout out loud a face in the crowd
In the name of rock n roll
Come on feel the drum pounding on your soul
Too loud, the bells will toll
But you won’t run and hide
Come on rock this world hard before you die
You know you gotta do it
You know you have to try
Fight for what ya doin
Rock hard til ya die

Rock til ya die, Rock til ya die
Rock til ya die, Rock til ya die

Time goes by me
It flowers and it falls
Sweet sweet memories
Answer all my calls
Love it’s like Halloween
A trick or treat to go
Fills up my emptiness
Love pulls you to and fro

I watched you slip away
I watched you slip away
I watched you slip away
You can tighten your grip
But there’s nothing to hang onto
You can tighten your grip
But there’s nothing to hang onto
You can tighten your grip
But there’s nothing to hang onto
Arrrrgh huh

You can’t do anything
Anything at all
One day your here
And then one day your gone
Leaving no shadow
Moonbeams all once shone
Death walks beside you
Then holds your hand too long

I watched you slip away
I watched you slip away
I watched you slip away
You can tighten your grip
But there’s nothing to hang onto
You can tighten your grip
But there’s nothing to hang onto
You can tighten your grip
But there’s nothing to hang onto
Arrrrgh huh
Arrrrgh huh

Dissolving into ether
Dissolving into dust
Mirror shows no reflection
Soap bubbles they all burst
Soap bubbles they all burst

I watched you slip away
I watched you slip away
I watched you slip away
You can tighten your grip
But there’s nothing to hang onto
You can tighten your grip
But there’s nothing to hang onto
You can tighten your grip
But there’s nothing to hang onto
Arrrrgh huh
Arrrrgh huh
Arrrrgh huh

Oooooooh, ooooooooh
Tighten your grip
Tighten your grip
Tighten your grip
