I was born the day the music died There was a dark revolution and blood in the sky Everything they told me was nothing but lies I had to fight for my life just to barely survive We've been betrayed and we've been abused We've been mocked and been called fools We're the children of the underground Fighting the world and standing proud So here we stand Ready to die Living the way we want to today We won't back down Gonna stand our ground We've only got one thing to say We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock We're Here To Rock We see darkness and we see sin We see the losers who want to win We see things that aren't right We see those that no longer fight This ain't the world in which we wish to live So for the future our lives we'll give We'll be the change that we wish to see We may be born slaves but we're gonna die free So here we stand Ready to die Living the way we want to today We won't back down Gonna stand our ground We've only got one thing to say We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock We're Here To Rock We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock We're Here To Rock Guitar! [Guitar Solo] We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock We're Here To Rock We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock You We're Here To Rock We're Here To Rock We're Here To Rock We're Here To Rock

I'm a glam rock poet Rock n roll romantic Cowboy lonesome on the trail I've got hopes and dreams Goals and ambitions And I ain't gonna fail I'm an orphan of the blues Nomad of funk and soul Vagabond of the western world And everything I do I do for rock n roll music Except the things I do for that girl I like the way I look I like the way I talk And girl I'll always love you And I ain't ever gonna stop I like the way I look I like the way I talk And girl I'll always love you I like the way I rock I'm a child of the heartland Love my jazz and big band A queen of the pop symphony I'm a messiah to some Heretic to others But I'm just a rocker can't you see I'm a beatlemaniac A steinman freak Card-carrying member of the Kiss Army I'm sarcastic and sincere I'm campy and I'm cheer I'm a rocker, can you hear? I like the way I look I like the way I talk And girl I'll always love you And I ain't ever gonna stop I like the way I look I like the way I talk And girl I'll always love you I like the way I rock Everything I can say Has been said by somebody else But I don't really care I wanna say it myself [Guitar Solo] I like the way I look I like the way I talk And girl I'll always love you And I ain't ever gonna stop, stop, stop I like the way I look I like the way I talk And girl I'll always love you I like the way I rock I like the way I look I like the way I talk And girl I'll always love you I like the way I rock, rock, rock Ooh yeah

Alone 03:36
Out on the streets On my own Been betrayed again It's the same old show You'll say you'll give me love You'll say your on my side But at the first chance you get You leave me out to die You say there's no hope You say there's no chance Give up on your dreams And any thoughts of romance You're gonna die alone You're gonna crash and burn And the only thing you'll know Is a lifetime of hurt No, no I'm gonna give it my all No, no No, I refuse to fall No, no I won't give in without a fight Fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I'm on my own I'm gonna fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I stand alone Did you ever once believe in me Was all of our love imaginary Did you ever care Did you ever trust I gave you my all but it wasn't enough I'm in a low place Things are getting worse I always try to fly but remain here on earth I'm working so hard It seems to no avail Maybe they were right when they said I'd fail No, no I'm gonna give it my all No, no No, I refuse to fall No, no I won't give in without a fight Fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I'm on my own I'm gonna fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I stand alone Fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I'm on my own I'm gonna fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I stand alone [Guitar Solo] Fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I'm on my own I'm gonna fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I stand alone Fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I'm on my own I'm gonna fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I stand alone Fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I'm on my own I'm gonna fight til the end Fight til the end Even if I stand alone

Did you feel My love through time Was my existence Ever on your mind? Did you know That I would feel this way? Did you know That I would go through all this pain? Did you know That I'd love you just the same Just the same Just the same [Guitar Solo] Yeah Merle I really love ya I can't live without ya Oh yeah Alright I'm gonna give you everything I have to give girl Because you're the only one for me You are the love of my life Merle I love ya I don't care if it's impossible Or if they say I'm a fool If I'm nothing but a fool in love Then girl I'm a fool for you I'm gonna reach you if I have to cross All of the sands of time And I won't ever stop loving you Even after I die And I know That I'm in love with you And I know That there's nothing at all I can do And I know That I want you to be mine And I ain't giving up I'm gonna make you mine Oh how I wish she were mine But I was born out of time Oh how I really wish she were my girl It's not meant to be But that ain't stoppin' me Ooh, I love you Merle Ooh, I love you Merle Ooh, I love you Merle Ooh, I love you Merle

Rock n roll forever Let's defend her together She will never die Rock n roll forever Let's defend her together She will never die It all started long ago With bluesmen singing out their souls The music was what gave them peace inside But then it turned into something fun Anthems of freedom for the young And it still gives us peace inside Rock n roll forever Let's defend her together She will never die Rock n roll forever Let's defend her together She will never die It has many different sounds From Megadeth to James Brown So many different styles can never grow old Rush, Manowar and Al Green Are all just the same to me It's what makes you feel good inside your soul Rock n roll forever Let's defend her together She will never die Rock n roll forever Let's defend her together She will never die Overdrive, yeah! [Guitar Solo] Love! That is rock n roll Hope! That is rock n roll Freedom! That is rock n roll Love! That is rock n roll Hope! That is rock n roll Freedom! That is rock n roll It's whatever you want it to be, yeah Rock n roll forever Let's defend her together She will never die Rock n roll forever Let's defend her together She will never die People! It doesn't matter if it's metal, punk, prog or blues All that matters it that it puts a smile on your face And lifts up your soul People! Like Paul said We have been given a gift We have been given a road And that road's called Rock n roll And it's never gonna die For those of us that believe in a better tomorrow For those of us that believe our best days are ahead of us That's our music It's music for dreamers Are there any dreamers out there? (Yeah) Are there any dreamers out there? (Yeah) Well lemme hear ya (YEAH) Because it's a beautiful day to be alive
