Come to the reaper sing the song bringing death to everyone
Once the earth was calm and safe but now the land's a battle place
Firing shells into the air where they land no one cares
Now the blood flows like a stream widowmaker reigns supreme
Dogs of war - No surrender
Dogs of war - I kill the defender
Dogs of war - Scream in to battle
Dogs of war - It's the day of Jackal
Nothing seems to ease the pain the reaper's shadow still remains
Sniper lets the bullet fly in the distance someone die
The down becomes an empty shell come and spend a day in hell
Forgotten what we're fighting for no one wins this bloody war
Dogs of war - No surrender
Dogs of war - I kill the defender
Dogs of war - Scream in to battle
Dogs of war - It's the day of Jackal
Lay the wreath across the flag fill another body bag
Guard of honour standing proud put your son in to the ground
Did they die for you and me a sacrifice for liberty
A generation dead and gone the reaper sings his deadly song
Dogs of war - No surrender
Dogs of war - I kill the defender
Dogs of war - Scream in to battle
Dogs of war - It's the day of Jackal
Dogs of war - No surrender
Dogs of war - I kill the defender
Dogs of war - Scream in to battle
Dogs of war - It's the day of Jackal

Take me where the eagles fly
Let me drive along the open road
Break away the chains that bind you
Now you're free to make it your own
Feel the engines burning hot
Pounding out the sound
A free man proud
Forever free, riding with the wind in your hair (*)
Forever free, forever free
Take me where the four winds blow
Let me see the magic in your eyes
Just take the shackles from your soul
Imagination soaring to the skies
Journey to the rainbow's end
Searching for the freedom in your heart
(Repeat *)
Take me to the open plains
Let me drive along the desert road
Break away the chains that blind you
Now you're free to make it on your own
Feel the engines burning hot
Pounding out the sound
A free man proud
(Repeat *)

Somewhere in the night
A candle burns for you
The eternal flame
The light keeps shining on
Your music is immortal
It's stood the test of time
You're gone but not forgotten
You walk with us
We will remember (*)
They were born to rock and roll
This song's a celebration
Of what you gave to us
The legacy you left still marches on
Still they play your music
All around the world
Blasting through the airwaves
To the stars
(Repeat *)
From London to Chicago
From the mountains to the sea
The legacy you left
Will never die
(Repeat *)

Crusader, crusader, please take me with you
The battle lies far to the east
Crusader, crusader, don't leave me alone
I want to ride out on your quest
I'm waiting, I'm waiting, to stand by your side
To fight with you over the sea
They're calling, they're calling, I have to be there
The holy land has to be free
Fight the good fight
Believe what is right
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Fight the good fight
With all your might
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
We're marching, we're marching, to a land far from home
No one can say who'll return
For Christendom's sake, we'll take our revenge
On the pagans from out of the east
We Christians are coming, with swords held on high
United by faith and the cause
The Saracen heathen will soon taste our steel
Our standards will rise 'cross the land
Fight the good fight
Believe what is right
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Fight the good fight
With all your might
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
To battle, to battle, the Saracen hordes
We follow the warrior king
Onward, ride onward, into the fight
We carry the sign of the cross
Warlords of England, Knights of the Realm
Spilling their blood in the sand
Crusader, crusader, the legend is born
The future will honour your deeds
Fight the good fight
Believe what is right
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Fight the good fight
With all your might
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
(Come Crusader let battle commence)
Fight the good fight
Believe what is right
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Fight the good fight
Believe what is right
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm-

Silver ships across the sky
Something I have never seen before
Was it true or fantasy
I don't know the answers anymore
All I know is what I saw
Something shooting fast across the sky
Did we see a rocket ship (*)
From another star
Shooting through our galaxy
Coming from afar
I shee your lights
Shining in the sky
Shining in the sky
Leave your signs across the land
Mysteries, the answers that we seek
Coming from another world
Seen your circles in the golden sheaf
One day soon we'll talk to you
Find out if you come to us in peace
(Repeat *)

My father used to work the seam far below the ground
Digging for the coal to melt the steel
But now he lies a twisted man one foot in the grave
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
He used to be the fisherman that sailed the mighty sea
Searching for the harvest from the deep
But now the fleets are rusting hulks anchored at the quay
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
He used to be the farming man standing tall and proud
Working on the land to sow the seed
But now the buildings stand in shame rotting on the land
Just like the iron wheels that took him down
Just like the iron wheels that took him down

Bad luck and trouble
Get out of my way
My lady fortune's
Coming to stay
Don't need no bullshit
No mister Big
Don't need no contract
No papers to rig
I don't need trouble
I don't need pain
My lady fortune's
Coming back again
I ain't gonna take it
Take it no more
'Cause when push comes to shove
This can't be love
So I ain't gonna take it no more
Bad luck and trouble
Get out of my face
You're just a loser
Get off of my case
Can't stand the thunder
Can't keep me down
You're going nowhere
Stop messing around
I don't need trouble
I don't need pain
My lady fortune's
Coming back again
I ain't gonna take it
Take it no more
'Cause when push comes to shove
This can't be love
So I ain't gonna take it no more
Bad luck and trouble
Are passing me by
Your days are numbered
It's your turn to cry
No time for losers
With nothing to say
Sunshine and blue skies
Are heading my way
I ain't gonna take it
Take it no more
'Cause when push comes to shove
This can't be love
So I ain't gonna take it no more

I just got the news you're back in town
You're looking for a good time
You're still going down
You're a little too crazy
You ain't gonna last
You're candle's lit at both ends
You're burning too fast
You're going down out of control
You're on a crash drive, baby
(Yeah)
You're talking too much
You've run out of time
You're walking on the limit
You're way out of line
It's a little too easy
To get what ya will
Ya running with the wolf, baby
Ya there for the kill
You're going down out of control
You're on a crash drive, baby
(Yeah)
I just got the news you're back in town
You're looking for a good time
You're still hangin' 'round
You're going down out of control
You're on a crash drive, baby
Crash drive, baby
(Yeah)

One night in Louisiana
Down by Highway 84
You would hear a strange dog calling
Outside his mama's door
The baby was a killer
The cousin was a priest
The baby upped and said
I play the music of the beast
The devil in concordia
Looked down and waved his hands
The boy with jack-hawk eyes
Became the leader of the band
The connoseur of rhythm
Rock and roll and swing
But when it comes to boogie
You know that he's the king
Solid ball of rock (*)
Solid ball of rock
Solid ball of rock
Crashing out of the sky
Shakin' all over
But he don't know why
The devil went to Memphis
As he flew into the sun
Howled about redemption
With a bible and a gun
The preacher beat his chest
And cried: "Set my people free"
The killer said: "I drag you
To the gates of hell with me
Repeat (*)
The killer he was born again
He saw the gates of hell
The preacher found redemption
In a Jacksonville motel
Devil take the hindmost
They're running out of breath
They're gonna have a reckon
With the chilling hand of death
Repeat * two times

In a giant´s step of mankind
On a distant lunar sea
As you travel cross the universe
Will you take a step
Take a step for me
Will you take a step for me
The voyage of an eagle
Blasting to the stars
You take the hopes and dreams of men
To find yourself
To find tranquillity
To find tranquillity
Speeding across the universe
And placed a lonely flag
Out there in isolation
At the final
Final frontier
At the final frontier
Celebration
As we wait for your return
You took a giant leap for mankind
On another
On another world
On another world
Take it easy
Take it slow
Don't go fast
Don't let go
The eagle has landed (Repeat 4 times)

She used to be an ironhorse
Twenty years ago
Used to bring the mail to me
Through the ice and snow
I've sat alone and watched her
Steaming through the night
Ninety tons of thunder
Lighting up the sky
She was a princess of the night
I saw the writing on the wall
She was a princess of the night
I take a ride across the sky
Speeding, sparks like lightning
Engine working hard
Furnace on the foot plate
Shining in the night
Iron striking metal
The sound of racing steel
It's all I ever wanna hear
It's music to my ears
She was a princess of the night
I saw the writing on the wall
She was a princess of the night
I take a ride across the sky
She was a princess of the night
I saw the writing on the wall
She was a princess of the night
I 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 a princess of the night
I saw the writing on the wall
She was a princess of the night
I take a ride across the sky
(sky, sky, sky)

I was laid around bored to tears watching flowers grow
I got my car and drove to town tried to find a show
Cruised around for an hour or two, hunted high and low
I had to find some rock 'n' roll to make my system go
'Cos I can't, I can't stop rockin' (*)
Let me hear that music one more time
'Cos I can't, I can't stop rockin'
I found a club with a neon sign on the sleazy side of town
A battered jukebox on the wall was the only source of sound
A drunken sailor from a russian whaler was my only drinking mate
Then through the door smashed a hundred more, said yeah let's celebrate
(Repeat *)
The party burst straight out through the doors out onto the street
People came from miles around dancing to the beat
From across the street came a real smart suit, said hey I'm gonna sue
But there ain't no sucker with a long legged hooker, gonna tell me what to do
(Repeat *)

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
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
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

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
(Repeat *)
