Don't believe me if I tell you Not a word of this is true Don't believe me if I tell you Especially if I tell you that I'm in love with you Don't believe me if I tell you That I wrote this song for you There might be some other silly pretty girl I'm singing it to Don't believe a word For words are only spoken Your heart is like a promise Made to be broken Don't believe a word Words can tell lies And lies are no comfort When there's tear in your eyes Don't believe me if I tell you Not a word of this is true Don't believe me if I tell you Especially if I tell you that I'm in love with you Don't believe a word |

When I passed you in the doorway You took me with a glance I should have took that last bus home But I asked you for a dance Now we go steady to the pictures I always get chocolate stains on my pants My father he's going crazy Say's I'm living in a trance But I'm dancing in the moonlight It's caught me in its spotlight It's alright, alright Dancing in the moonlight On the long hot summer night It's three o'clock in the morning And I'm on the streets again I disobeyed another warning I should have been in by ten Now I won't get out until Sunday I'll have to say I stayed with friends But it's a habit worth forming If it means to justify the end |

Locked up in the classroom waiting for the fight
Down to the schoolyard knocking the gate Into the alley meet up with the boys Waiting for the weekend to make a little noise Thunder is strong, lightning is death Kicking the girls and it's starting to blast Sweeter than the heavens and the fate means stumble But it's Saturday night when heavy rock was born Chorus: Like thunder and lightning god damn, it's so exciting It hits you like a hammer god damn It was Saturday night I was ready for the dance My girl walked in holding another guys hand He stood six foot six he looked two miles wide I was taking it easy till he took her outside I was madder than hell and fit to burn This guy would break a leg before but now he's got to run Standing in the corner giving him a thrill You can keep your lover honey, but he's got to pay the bill Well the place started rocking it was Saturday night I was dressed to kill I was feeling alright Alright in the middle of the night I wasn't ready for a rumble but the mood was right When he got up to leave I stood in his way I said love that's the price you have to pay In the doorway up against the wall When they play a heavy record then I'm gonna have a ball We started to rumble and stumble It is we were rocking and rolling and rolling and tumbling I fumbled and started to win When the greater than wicked then I hit him again I hit him again and I couldn't hit him anymore My head was all black and blue and my jaw was sore Sweeter than the heavens and like a frightening stumble It was Saturday night when heavy rock was born |

It doesn't matter if you're wrong or if you're right
It makes no difference if you're black or if you're white All men are equal till the victory is won No color or religion ever stopped a bullet from a gun Out in the fields, the fighting has begun Out on the streets, they're falling one by one Out from the skies, a thousand more will die each day Death is just a heartbeat away It doesn't matter if you're left or to the right Don't try to hide behind the cause for which you fight There'll be no prisoners taken when the day is done No flag no uniform ever stopped a bullet from a gun Out in the fields, the fighting has begun Out on the streets, they're falling one by one Out from the skies, a thousand more will die each day Death is just a heartbeat away There's no communication No one to take the blame The cries of every nation They're falling on deaf ears again Out in the fields Out in the fields, they are falling one by one Out in the fields, no flag has ever stopped a bullet from a gun Death is just a heartbeat away Out in the fields, a heartbeat away Out in the fields, death is just a heartbeat away Out in the fields, a heartbeat away Out in the fields Out in the fields, the fighting has begun Out on the streets, they're falling one by one Out from the skies, a thousand more will die each day Out. |

Down from the glen came the marching men
With their shields and their swords To fight the fight they believed to be right Overthrow the overlords To the town where there was plenty They brought plunder, swords and flame When they left the town was empty Children would never play again From their graves I heard the fallen Above the battle cry By that bridge near the border There were many more to die Then onward over the mountain And outward towards the sea They had come to claim the Emerald Without it they could not leave |

Oh my god
There's millions of them! I've seen a fire start in Frisco The day that the earth quaked I've seen buildings a-blazing Throwing up in flames I heard men, women and children Crying out to their God for mercy But their God didn't listen So they were burned alive They went down, down, deep underground In the great disaster I was hanging out in Berlin In the year one thousand nine hundred and thirty nine I've seen Hitler's storm troopers March right across the Maginot Line I've seen two world wars I've seen men send rockets out into space I foresee a holocaust An angel of death descending to destroy the human race Down, down, deep undergound A great disaster In the sixteenth century there was a French philosopher By the name of Nostradamus Who prophesised that in the late twentieth century An angel of death shall waste this land A holocaust the likes of which This planet had never seen Now, I ask you Do you believe this to be true? I was standing by the bedside The night that my father died He was crying out in pain To his God he said, "Have mercy, mercy!" His body was riddled with a disease Unknown to man so he expected no cure But before he died that night He was lost, insane He went down, down, deep underground A great disaster You'll go down, down, deep underground A great disaster I think they've got now! Angel of Death (Lynott, Wharton) [Lorelei version] -------------- I was hanging round in Frisco In the year of one hundred and nineteen six When I heard about the earthquake The world trembled from within I saw the fire ragin Through all that time I heard people dying They went down, down, deep underground In the great disaster I was hanging out in Berline In the year one hundred nineteen and thirty nine I've seen Hitler's storm troopers March right across the Maginot line I've seen men run away crying "Gas!" Right in front of their throats I wouldn't think that I was squeezing They went down, down, deep underground a great disaster I was standing at the bedside That night my father died I could see him crying for mercy A disease had got his body I was afraid then As I am now The Lord did not hear him He went anyhow He went down, down, deep underground It was a disaster I will go down, down, underground To meet my master Down, down |

I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
a STARRY night,the CAMPFIRE light The coyote call, and the howling winds wail So I'll ride out to the old sundown I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail Lord, I'm just thinking about a certain female The nights we spent together riding on the RANGE Looking back it seems so strange Roll me over and turn me around Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground Roll me over and let me go Riding in the rodeo I was took in Texas I did not know her name Lord, all these southern girls seem the same Down below the border in a town in Mexico I got my job busting broncs for the rodeo Roll me over and turn me around Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground Roll me over and let me go Running free with the buffalo Here I go Roll me over and I'll turn around And I'll move my fingers up and down Up and down It's ok amigos Just let me go Riding in the rodeo Roll me over and turn me around Let me keep spinning till i hit the ground Roll me over and let me go Riding in the rodeo Roll me over and set me free The cowboy's life is the life for me |

Guess who just got back today,
Them wild-eyed boys that'd been away, Haven't changed, had much to say, But man, I still think them cats are crazy. They were askin' if you were around, How you was, where you could be found. Told them you were livin' downtown, Drivin' all the old men crazy. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. You know that chick that used to dance a lot, Every night, she'd be on the floor, shakin' what she's got. Man, when I tell ya she was cool, she was red hot. And that time over at Johnny's place, Well, this chick, she got up and slapped Johnny's face, Man, we just fell about the place, If that chick don't wanna know, forget her. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. Friday night they'll be dressed to kill, Down at Deano's bar and grill The drink will flow, and blood will spill, And if the boys wanna fight you better let 'em. That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song, The nights are gettin' warmer, it won't be long, Won't be long 'til summer comes, Now that the boys are here again. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. Transcribed by Rich Kulawiec, rsk@ecn.purdue.edu. |

Don't believe me if I tell you Not a word of this is true Don't believe me if I tell you Especially if I tell you that I'm in love with you Don't believe me if I tell you That I wrote this song for you There might be some other silly pretty girl I'm singing it to Don't believe a word For words are only spoken Your heart is like a promise Made to be broken Don't believe a word Words can tell lies And lies are no comfort When there's tear in your eyes Don't believe me if I tell you Not a word of this is true Don't believe me if I tell you Especially if I tell you that I'm in love with you Don't believe a word |

When I passed you in the doorway
You took me with a glance I should have took that last bus home But I asked you for a dance Now we go steady to the pictures I always get chocolate stains on my pants My father he's going crazy Say's I'm living in a trance But I'm dancing in the moonlight It's caught me in its spotlight It's alright, alright Dancing in the moonlight On this long hot summer night It's three o'clock in the morning And I'm on the streets again I disobeyed another warning I should have been in by ten Now I won't get out until Sunday I'll have to say I stayed with friends But it's a habit worth forming If it means to justify the end And I'm walkin home The last bus is long gone, And I'm dancing in the moonlight |

Locked up in the classroom waiting for the fight
Down to the schoolyard knocking the gate Into the alley meet up with the boys Waiting for the weekend to make a little noise Thunder is strong, lightning is death Kicking the girls and it's starting to blast Sweeter than the heavens and the fate means stumble But it's Saturday night when heavy rock was born Chorus: Like thunder and lightning god damn, it's so exciting It hits you like a hammer god damn It was Saturday night I was ready for the dance My girl walked in holding another guys hand He stood six foot six he looked two miles wide I was taking it easy till he took her outside I was madder than hell and fit to burn This guy would break a leg before but now he's got to run Standing in the corner giving him a thrill You can keep your lover honey, but he's got to pay the bill Well the place started rocking it was Saturday night I was dressed to kill I was feeling alright Alright in the middle of the night I wasn't ready for a rumble but the mood was right When he got up to leave I stood in his way I said love that's the price you have to pay In the doorway up against the wall When they play a heavy record then I'm gonna have a ball We started to rumble and stumble It is we were rocking and rolling and rolling and tumbling I fumbled and started to win When the greater than wicked then I hit him again I hit him again and I couldn't hit him anymore My head was all black and blue and my jaw was sore Sweeter than the heavens and like a frightening stumble It was Saturday night when heavy rock was born |

It's a tedious existence laying your love on the line
Resistance is useless she can leave at any time I must confess that in my quest I felt depressed and restless But this Casanova's roving days are over more or less With love She broke my heart and made me sad You foolish boy you lost what you had My Mademoiselle I must make my farewell You see Senor I know she don't want me no more I'd like to make that Fraulein mine, mein Fraulein So I'll depart sweetheart and leave you with this line With love She says she won't be back no more With love She says she's leaving for sure My Mademoiselle I'll say farewell No matter where you are, Au Revoir 'Til we meet again, Auf Wiedersehn She wrote it on a letter But it didn't make him feel any better With love She says goodbye, adios, farewell There are those who will spend a lifetime of leisure 'Til the leisure finally takes control And they'll spend their life in search of pleasure Never knowing the treasure that they own There are those who will spend a lifetime in hard labour 'Til the labour breaks both body and soul And they will learn to love their neighbor And be assured of what they own |

Lonesome gambler That woman will lead to heartbreaks Take the word of one Who played and lost in love I played it cool I dealt the heartaches I broke rules But that woman she cut me up That woman's gonna break your heart That woman's gonna tear your soul apart That woman's gonna wreck your head That woman's gonna leave you sad, so sad If your life depends On what you are losing You're still refusing To believe in fate or chance You don't know now But it's the wrong card you're using That deck you're using Is stacked against romance That woman's gonna break your heart That woman's gonna tear your soul apart That woman's gonna wreck your head That woman's gonna leave you sad, so sad |

Wild one won't you please come home
You've been away too long, will you We need you home, we need you near Come back wild one will you How can we live without your love You know that could kill you How can we carry on When you are gone my wild one So you go your way wild one I'll try and follow And if you change your mind I will be waiting here for you tomorrow For I would beg for you I would steal and I would borrow I'd do anything, anything at all To end this sorrow Wild one The gypsies warned of the danger You can laugh and joke with friends But don't you ever talk to strangers Although their offers may be sweet And I'd bet and I would wager Away you'll stray and never come back To those who love and made you |
