Your eyes fixed on the setting sun Journey has just begun Searching for a land of gold Fire burning in your soul CHORUS 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 CHORUS-Fire on the mountain 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 CHORUS-Fire on the mountain Oh well the sun is cryin, oh 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

Rock Pile 06:13
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 Its a wonder that I’m still here CHORUS................ 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 CHORUS-Rockpile Rock came back today Rock came back today Never go away Rock came back today- (Repeat) 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 CHORUS - Rockpile Yeahhhh Rock came back today Rock came back today Never go away- (Repeat) Don’t get caught up on the rockpile

Thunder & lighting came down from the sky Cut in the dark & I don’t know why I crossed my heart that I didn’t die Stop living in fear for the rest of my life CHORUS........... 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............. Angels of mercy are ying 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 CHORUS-Give me a switchblade It was a rainy forecast the night you cut my heart The moon shone down, the blade glistened in the dark Thunder & lightening smashed me to the ground Lying in a pool of blood with my angels ying around Lying in a pool of blood with my angels ying around Thunder & lightening came down from the sky Cut in the dark & I don’t know why I crossed my heart that I didn’t die Stop living in fear for the rest of my life CHORUS-Give me a switchblade 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

Rock Town 07:23
Is this the place That public disgrace Lets all get shit faced There’s talk of a place but I ain’t yet seen it They rock 24hrs, you’ve gotta believe it The girls they wear their guitars on their hip You better be fast on this wild west trip CHORUS............... 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 & then gave me lip Seemed so surprised when I jumped in her car Well I’m o to a place now it isn’t too far CHORUS-Is this the place I don’t wanna leave here Cause I’m addicted to it Wild women, booze & song Turn my lights on Well the population is a 110 They’re out on the streets & they’re raging again No law & order needed so far All the cops are crooked And the town rocks hard CHORUS-Is this the place 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 ROCK TOWN?

Geronimo 06:25
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 & he set his people free CHORUS.......... 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 & 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 & set his people free CHORUS-He was a revolutionary And hail to the people that loved him now And curse the people that wrecked him down He had a warrior soul & he set his people free Then came his nal test At his gravesite they molest Legend says, his bones unrest at Yale CHORUS-He was a revolutionary Only takes one man to start a revolution Geronimo was a revolution Geronimo was a revolution Geronimo was a revolution Hey yeah, oooohoohooo oooohoohooo (Indian chant)

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 & defeat me.... defeat me I’m too rough too ready And I ain’t no saint All that cloak & dagger Was your mistake Well our loves too strong We cannot be friends Lets 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 CHORUS-If I follow you home Don’t you lock me up & throw away the key Don’t you lock me up & 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 CHORUS-If I follow you home 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 & foe With the crossbow of your soul Fire breathes deep delight Gives you strength in which to ght CHORUS........... With hearts ablaze, metals warm & blood is cold With hearts ablaze, driven by your ancient soul With hearts ablaze, now you conquer the unknown With hearts ablaze, metals warm & blood is cold In your dreamboat safe & long Ride the rhythm of your song The wind is in your sails Destiny.............Impails, your love CHORUS-With hearts ablaze 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 & opens up your soul That’s your sunrise Throw away your locks & all your sorrow Cast aside your bleeding doubt Just a smile puts you in motion Love will nally 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 nally seek you out

Time goes by me It owers & it falls Sweet sweet memories Answer all my calls Love its like Halloween A trick or treat to go Fills up my emptiness Love pulls you to & fro CHORUS............. I watched you slip away I watched you slip away I watched you slip away You can tighten your grip But there’s nothin to hang onto You can tighten your grip But there’s nothin to hang onto You can tighten your grip But there’s nothin 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 CHORUS-I watched you slip away Arrrrgh huh...........Arrrrgh huh..... Dissolving into ether Dissolving into dust Mirror shows no reection Soap bubbles they all burst Soap bubbles they all burst CHORUS-I watched you slip away Arrrrgh huh...........Arrrrgh huh...... Arrrrgh huh...........Arrrrgh huh...... Oooooooh, ooooooooh Tighten your grip
