Manowar Album

We met on English ground
In a backstage room
We heard the sound
And we all knew
What we had to do
We called the high command
Questedly to make a stand
And in the field we grew
And we all knew
Soon the time would come
For us to fight,
Destination
Now in sight
Aaah, Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
Our fight will never end
So we called your party sense
To raise your hands
And take our stand
Look sharp
When duty calls
Where we march
Cities fall
And the strong survive
And take our side
Now the time has come
For us to fight
Target waiting
In our sight
Aaah, Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Manowar
Born to live forever more
Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Manowar

I hear the sound
In a metal way
I feel the power
Rolling on the stage
'Cause only one thing
Really sets me free
Heavy metal
Loud as it can be
Baby I was born to play music
I am a man with a screaming guitar
There's a light in a middle of the stage
In a minute I'll be wearing it all
I don't know another way of living
Baby I don't really care
Give me a pair of chains, aim the whiplash at me
The girls I'd love to share
Chorus:
Heavy metal, metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Living like there's no tomorrow
Yeah, I could resist we're all on the edge
This is: Man you really graft it
This band: A social waste
Well, we all got arms made of metal
And our glories are no deblock
And if I don't hear the sound of metal
I go into shock !
Chorus:
Heavy metal, metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal
So mister D. J.
Play just one for me
You know the one
With the crushin' and the screams
'Cause only one thing
Really sets me free
Heavy metal
Loud as it can be
Chorus:
Heavy metal, metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal
Loud as it can be

Mama is having troubles,
It always comes from me
Your daddy said that drink is
Is not yours for the free
They tell you I'm a loser
'Cause I like see 'em breed
But truth is in the mirror
Is one thing never seen
I sing Yeah
Long time ago
You tried to tell me, son
People tried to hold on
I said no no, no no
No, I don't mind them saying
That you should be praying
For me, fast taker
Right here's where I'm staying
Life's a game I play
For keeps, fast taker, fast taker, fast taker
Take it away
Only sixteen
For more than not a girl
Old enough
For a trip around the world
Pick you up on Friday
When daddy goes to sleep
Bring you back on Sunday
When he's watching "Merry Granma" on T.V.
Oh yeah, he won't see me
Now do it right with music
Then you learn how to abuse it
All night, fast taker
Right here's where I'm staying
Life's a game I play
For peace, fast taker, fast taker, fast taker
Take it away
Mama is having troubles,
It always comes from me
Your daddy said that drink is
Is not yours for the free
They tell you I'm a loser
'Cause I like see 'em breed
But truth is in the mirror
Is one thing never seen
A long time ago
You tried to tell me son
People tried to hold on
I said no no, no no
No I don't mind them saying
That you should be praying
For me, fast taker
Right here's where I'm staying
Life's a game I play
For keeps, fast taker, fast taker, fast taker
Take it away

By moonlight we ride
Ten thousands side by side
With swords drawn held high
Our whips and armour shine
Hail to thee our infantry
Still brave beyond the grave
All sworn the eternal vow
The time to strike is now

Kill !! Kill !!
Kill !! Kill !!

Gone are the days when freedom shone
now blood and steel meet bone
In the light of the battle's way
The sands of time will shake
How proud our soldiers stand
with mace and chain in hand
Sound of charge into glory ride
over the top of their vanguished pride

Victory !! Victory !!
Victory !! Victory !!

Victory !! Victory !!
Victory !! Victory !!

To the battle we ride we crossed a starlit sky
No space no time we'll catch the wind
Strange losses, men died we crossed a starlit sky
And still no space and time we'll catch the wind

[Solos]

Kill !! Kill !!
Kill !! Kill !!

Kill !! Kill !!
Kill !! Kill !!

Sound of charge into glory ride
over the top of their vanguished pride
By moonlight we ride
Ten thousands side by side

Kill !! Kill !!
Kill !! Kill !!

Kill !! Kill !!
Kill !! Kill !!

I made a rock'n'roll sin
When I tried givin' in to
Make money had to turn down low
They said, "Why be proud, don't play so loud
Be like us and get a sound that's real thin
Wear a polyester suit, act happy look cute
Get a haircut and buy small gear"
That's when I turned to them and said
"Hold it, right there!"

Well it's more to me than just a job
And while I'm playin' you won't get robbed
Nobody tells a man how to play
It just ain't that way hey, hey, hey
Can you hear me say...

All men play on ten
Never gonna turn down again
All men play on ten
Never gonna turn down

I'm jet fuel honey, plug me into 220
Step back and let my fingers fly
While I'm burning up my gear
There's a fire in your ear
That won't stop until the day you die

I really put it to the floor when I hear the crowd roar
Oh it's music to my ears when they scream
Then I run back to the power rack
And deck all of my gear

Well it's more to me than just a job
And while I'm playin' you won't get robbed
Nobody tells a man how to play
It just ain't that way hey, hey, hey
Can you hear me say...

Wrote a letter to the M.T.V.
What's goin' on now
Don't ya care about me|
Sent the same letter to the radio,Ha|
But my party went dead
Like a shot in the head

We all like it-Rock and Roll
We all want it-On your show
Play it loud,don't play it low
Blow your speakers with Rock and Roll

We got lots of stations
Around the nation
And the stuff they're playing
It just ain't worth my sayin'
People want music to get'em movin'
We don't want labels
We want music on the table

We all like it-Rock and Roll
We all want it-on your show
Play it loud,don't play it low
Blow your speakers with Rock and Roll

We all like it-Rock and Roll
We want it
We all want it-on your show
Play it loud,don't play it low
Blow your speakers with Rock and Roll

We got lots of stations
Around the nation
And the stuff they're playing
It just ain't worth my sayin'

We all like it-Rock and Roll
We all want it-on your show
Play it loud,don't play it low
Blow your speakers with Rock and Roll

Blow your speaker...Rock and Roll (repeated)

Build a fire a thousand miles away
To light my long way home
I ride a comet
My trail is long to stay

Silence is a heavy stone
I fight the world and take all they can give
There are times my heart hangs low

Born to walk against the wind
Born to hear my name
No matter where I stand, I'm alone

Stand and fight
Live by your heart
Always one more try
I'm not afraid to die
Stand and fight
Say what you feel
Born with a heart of steel

Burn the bridge behind you, leave no retreat
There's only one way home
Those who laugh and crowd the path
And cut each other's throats
Will fall like melting snow

They'll watch us rise with fire in our eyes
They'll bow their heads
Their heart will hang low
Then we'll laugh and they will kneel
And know this heart of steel
Was too hard to break
Too hard to hold

Stand and fight
Live by your heart
Always one more try
I'm not afraid to die
Stand and fight
Say what you feel
Born with a heart of steel

Brothers, the battle is raging
Choose your side
Sing with us the batle hymn
Into glory ride
Hail to England
The sign of the hammer's our guide
Forever we're fighting the world
Side by side

On a crusade
The world we bring
Four kings of metal
Four metal kings
Death to the false ones
Dance on a string
'Til the blood on your sword is the blood of a king
'Til the blood on your sword is the blood of a king

Our armies in England, Scotland, and Wales
Our brothers in Belgium, Holland and France will not fail
Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Italy
Switzerland, Austria
Back to the glory of Germany

On a crusade
The world we bring
Four kings of metal
Four metal kings
Death to the false ones
Dance on a string
'Til the blood on your sword is the blood of a king
'Til the blood on your sword is the blood of a king

Sound the death tone
On our march for revenge
Spill the blood of my enemies
The oath of a friend
Fight the holy war for the crown and the ring
Six magic circles made by the blood of the kings

Wherever we ride, it's metal we bring
Four kings of metal
Four metal kings
Death to the false ones
Dance on a string
'Til the blood on your sword is the blood of a king
'Til the blood on your sword is the blood of a king
Blood of a king

Civilization crumblin' fast
End the world with a blast
People afraid walking the streets
Scums have their day
'til they run into me

Are you ready?

Livin' in fear ain't livin' to me
I'am armed with a gun defending the free
They blew it in nam shot up my friends
I'm back in the streets the fight never ends

I was born with a gun in my hand
I'll die for my country
But I'll die like a man
Violence and bloodsheed
Violence and bloodsheed
Violence and bloodsheed


Now we're back to animal law
The payback's a bitch and I'm paying all
All my life I been waitin'to see
Who's gonna win crumbs or me

Are you ready

My brother's still in da-nang
Puttin'an ad in the back of kerrang
I'm looking for people who just wanna kill
We'll go back the nam cause no one else will

Land of the free
Home of the brave
Now that's how it is
And that's how it stays

Violence and bloodsheed
Violence and bloodsheed
Violence and bloodsheed

Since the dawn of time
I've rolled across the earth
Spinning in the dust

Long before your birth
Eatin' tar and gasoline
Every light I see is green
Open pipes, my machine's
Triple-plated chrome

Spirit of the wheel
Wheels of fire burn the night
Ride across the sky
Wheels of fire burning bright
We live to ride

Motors running
Now you're gonna learn
Waiting on the line
Make your tires burn
Fast, faster, faster, faster
Speeding always kills
Nothing else takes us to get these thrills

Spirit of the wheel
Wheels of fire burn the night
Ride across the sky
Wheels of fire burning bright
We live to ride

Blood and thunder on the road
My heart is pounding
My blood is nitroglycerin
I'm fire
Burning, burning, burning, burning
Ready to explode
Don't want nothing left of me to scrape off the road

Spirit of the wheel
Wheels of fire burn the night
Ride across the sky
Wheels of fire burning bright

We live to ride

Clouds of smoke
Tires screaming
Fire in my hair
Blown into a thousand pieces
Scattered everywhere
Fast, burn, burning, faster
Wanna take a ride
Spirit of the wheel
Wheels of fires ride

Spirit of the wheel
Wheels of fire burn the night
Ride across the sky
Wheels of fire burning bright
We live to ride

Every one of us has heard the call
Brothers of true metal proud and standing tall
We know the power within us has brought us to this hall
There's magic in the metal there's magic in us all

Heavy metal or no metal at all
Whimps and posers leave the hall,
Heavy metal or no metal at all
Whimps and posers, go on get out, leave the hall

Now the world must listen to our decree
We don't turn down for anyone we do just what we please,
Got to make it louder, all men play on ten,
If you're not into metal, you are not my friend

Heavy metal or no metal at all
Whimps and posers leave the hall,
Heavy metal or no metal at all
Whimps and posers, I said: "leave the hall!"

There's metal in the air tonight, can you hear it call?
If you ain't got the balls to take it - you can leave the hall

Black candles slowly burning white fangs and flashing eyes
Hell's wind and incantations summon living fire
Darkest forces and your demon's black order black king
The cult that serves the living, accept this offering
Black candles slowly burning white fangs and flashing eyes
Hell's wind and incantations summon living fire
As the seven steps await, hear the great bell toll
With a dead man's bones conjure, the enemy of the soul
From the misery and sadness of the molten seas of Hell
Mystic love and mystic symbols in evil dreams there dwell
Darkest forces and your demons black order, black king
The cult that serves the living accept this offering
A deadly drink, a meal of hearts, now sacrifice and die
In darkness and destruction, behold the evil eye
And the Demon's whip
Armies of the Gods of Hell ride across the astral plane
Bearing curses of destruction, sweorn beyond the grave
Children of the darkness, all born but to deceive
By the ancient code of evil grant not one reprieve
In the place of evil dwells death can live when all life death
Wage eternal war on heaven immortal hate below the sky
Your scripture and your sermons, are leaves borne on the wind
To heal the unrepentant one needs a greater sin
Night winds, oblivion see my dark desire
Come forth, appear he is living fire
Feel the Demon's whip
