If you're taking a flight
At the speed of light If you're shaking your heads to the band If you're there in your hordes But you're not on the force We're taking this place to the ground In the heat of the night When you're fists are alight Forged on anvils of steel If your body's on fire About to expire We go through the threshold of pain Pull your head back Hold your hands high Shake your body If it's too loud And your brain hurts Fill your heads with heavy metal thunder On the wings of an eagle You're hoping to fly Holding your hands to the sky On a blue sea of venom Checkin' the band Your banners and scarves held on high If your backs are embroidered Come down to the front Don't sit there and do as they say We're an army of thousands Surrounded by lights Nobody stands in our way |

[Byford/Quinn/Oliver/Dawson/Gill]
Just before dawn in the cold light We came out of the night A great expectation from the man who ran the show Will it rain, will it snow, will it shine, we don't know Are there clouds up in the sky We sat in the sun, woah-oh-oh And the bands played on And the bands played on And the bands played on See the people, feel the power There was sixty thousand there Just like thunder the crowds began to roar Where you there, did ya know, did ya see all the show There was magic in the air We sat in the sun woah-oh-oh And the bands played on And the bands played on And the bands played on See the rainbow shining brightly Shooting rockets to the sky Making music and it rolled on through the night You could hear on the air rock n' roll everywhere We were strangers in the night We sat in the sun woah-oh-oh And the bands played on And the bands played on And the bands played on And the bands played on And the bands played on |

It is the night
My body's weak I'm on the run No time for sleep I've got to ride Ride like the wind To be free again I was born the son Of a lawless man Always spoke my mind With a gun in my hand Lived nine lives Gunned down ten Gonna ride like the wind And I've got such a long way to go To make it to the border of Mexico So I'll ride like the wind Ride like the wind Accused and tried and Told to hang I was nowhere in sight When the church bells rang Never was the kind To do as I was told Gonna ride like the wind Before I get old And I've got such a long way to go To make it to the border of Mexico So I'll ride like the wind Ride like the wind So I'll ride like the wind Ride like the wind It is the night My body's weak I'm on the run No time for sleep I've got to ride Ride like the wind To be free again And I've got such a long way to go To make it to the border of Mexico So I'll ride like the wind Ride like the wind And I've got such a long way to go To make it to the border of Mexico So I'll ride like the wind Ride like the wind |

We've got a 747 coming down in the night
There's no power, there's no runway lights Radio operator try to get a message through Tell the flight deck New York has no lights There's no power what do we do? 747 coming down in the night Try to get a message through We were strangers in the night Both on separate flights Strangers in the night Going nowhere This is Scandinavian one-o-one Flight from Hawaii coming out of the sun Kennedy should be in sight We can't see a thing here in the night Navigator says we're on the flight path There's no radio, no sign of life This is Scandinavian one-o-one For God's sake, get the ground lights on, because We were strangers in the night Both on separate flights Strangers in the night Going nowhere There's a 747 going into the night There's no power, they don't know why They've no fuel, they've got to land soon They can't land by the light of the moon They're overshooting, there's no guiding lights Set a course into the night Scandinavian one-o-one For God's sake get your ground lights on We were strangers in the night Both on separate flights Strangers in the night Going nowhere |

Far below the valleys
Hidden deep beneath the snow There's a man who guards the secret Of the frozen rainbow ...of all the ages Lies hidden neath the ice The man who finds the secret Holds the power of life Far below the valleys Hidden deep beneath the snow There's a man who's got a secret Waiting to be told I've searched through all the ages To find the hidden truth The secret of the rainbow Will never be revealed I'll find the rainbow, frozen rainbow I'll find the rainbow, frozen rainbow |

She used to be an iron horse twenty years ago
Used to bring the mail to me through the ice and snow I sat alone and watched her steaming through the night !!! Ninety tons of thunder lighting up the sky She was the princess of the night We saw the writing on the wall She was the princess of the night I'd take a ride across the sky Speeding sparks like lightning, engine working hard Furnace on the footplate shining in the night Iron striking metal the sound of racing steel That's all I ever wanna hear, it's music to my ears !!! She was the princess of the night We saw the writing on the wall She was the princess of the night I'd take a ride across the sky Ninety tons of thunder lighting up the sky Steaming red hot pistons see the wheels flash by !!!! Hear the whistle blowing streaking down the track If I ever had my way I'd bring the princess back one day She was the princess of the night We saw the writing on the wall She was the princess of the night I'd take a ride across the sky Hello, I made some corrections for you. Im not sure about te ??? marked lines, but I'm sure about the !!! marked lines. Best Regards, Luke |

When my foot's on the throttle
there's no looking back I leave my motor ticking over when she's parked on the track I've got a sixty eight Chevvy with pipes on the side You know she's my idea of beauty and that's what I drive She's got wheels, wheels of steel Talkin' 'bout my wheels of steel I don't take no jibe from no motorway pigs When I'm cruisin' down the freeway I don't give no lifts If you see me comin' get out of my way You know a Transam didn't I blew it away She's got wheels, wheels of steel Talkin' 'bout my wheels of steel |

Where were you in '79 when the dam began to burst
Did you check us out down at the local show Were you wearing denim, wearing leather Did you run down to the front Did you queue for your ticket through the ice and snow Denim and Leather Brought us all together It was you that set the spirit free Denim and Leather Brought us all together It was you that set the spirit free Did you read the music paper from the back and to the front Did you find out where to see your favorite band Did you listen to the radio every Friday night Did hang around your local record store Denim and Leather Brought us all together It was you that set the spirit free Denim and Leather Brought us all together It was you that set the spirit free Do you dream of playing guitar or smashing up the drums Maybe you can learn to play the bass You can always be a singer like me and front the band When on the stage we wait at your command Denim and Leather Brought us all together It was you that set the spirit free Denim and Leather Brought us all together It was you that set the spirit free It was you - that set the spirit free It was you - that put us here today It was you - that filled the concert halls It was you - that set the spirit free Denim and Leather Brought us all together It was you that set the spirit free Denim and Leather Brought us all together It was you that set the spirit free |

Waiting for the night
Keeping out of sight You're standing on the streets for kicks Looking for a thrill You know you're dressed to kill You're turning all the young boys on Treat them all the same Life is just a game You're breaking every heart around Really got it made Driving me insane But you're running out of time It's the call of the wild Creatures of the night It's the call of the wild Calling you tonight Life is just for fun Take it on the run You're trying everything in sight Living fast and wild You're a restless child You're screaming at the night Fighting fire with fire Burning with desire But no one's gonna put you out Run with the pack Never lookin' back But only the strong will survive It's the call of the wild Creatures of the night It's the call of the wild Calling you tonight Waiting for the night Keeping out of sight You're standing on the streets for kicks Looking for a thrill You know you're dressed to kill You're turning all the young boys on Treat them all the same Life is just a game You're breaking every heart around Really got it made Driving me insane But you're running out of time It's the call of the wild Creatures of the night It's the call of the wild Calling you tonight (Repeat to end) |

We've been out in the cold
Trying to get in We've been ripped off and rolled Heads in a spin Nothing can stop us breaking through Finding our way back home to you Standing alone in the fight You've never been out of our sight We're back on the streets again We're back on our feet again Out of the night Into the light We're back on our feet again We're back, we're back on the streets again We're back, we're back on the streets again Caught in a crossfire No-one can win They bled off the power Our spirit within Standing our ground We're digging in This time round We're gonna win The banners are flying high We're reaching for the sky We're back on the streets again We're back on our feet again Out of the night Into the light We're back on our feet again We're back, we're back on the streets again We're back, we're back on the streets again |
