Dirty city, dirty games Dirty women, dirty shames The life that you lead The chance that you took A shadow in the night On the line, you're hooked [Bridge 1] And if you see it coming Don't you run the other way [Chorus]: Swords and tequila Carry me through the night Swords and tequila Carry me through the fight Swords and tequila Carry me through the night Swords and tequila Carry me through the fight They wait for the night to fall To plan their attack Fightin' songs, on parade, they march An army in black Killers without a cause Rebels with no name City's gone to the underground Caught in a deadly game [Bridge] 2 And if you see us coming Don't you run the other way [Chorus] Swords and tequila Carry me through the night Swords and tequila Carry me through the fight Swords and tequila Carry me through the night Swords and tequila Carry me through the fight And I just don't mean kickin' ass... [Solo] [Bridge 2] And if you see us coming Don't you run the other way [Chorus] Swords and tequila Carry me through the night Swords and tequila Carry me through the fight Swords and tequila Carry me through the night Swords and tequila Carry me through, carry me through the fight.

If you're lookin' for some action, Runnin' against the tide. Feel like causin' some destruction, Spend some electric nights on the danger line. [Chorus]: Fire down under Fire down under Flame and chrome, it burns the night Through your eyes and in your mind Explode with savage thunder Hells gate next up in line [Chorus] Fire down under Fire down under [Solo] [Chorus] Fire down under Fire down under Fire...

All alone, sitting inside now Are you waiting for me? I'm feeling just a little bit slower Than I usually seem If I'm gonna take some chances Will you still remember me? And in the end, from the haunted dreams You might find, what you really need You find what you need Yeah, yeah, yeah. When you reach the forest Which way, does the wind blow the trees? Does the wheel inside you Turn like the wheel in me? I can't give you no answers To the questions, that you've got I feel that things been missing And this time I gotta take the shot I'm gonna take the shot. [Chorus]: Feel the same Baby does it feel the same to you? Feel the same It ain't easy when it happens to you Feel the same You don't know what I'm going through Feel the same It ain't easy when it happens, to you No, no, yeah [Solo] [Chorus] Feel the same Baby does it feel the same to you? Feel the same It ain't easy when it happens to you Feel the same You don't know what I'm going through Feel the same It ain't easy when it happens, to you It ain't easy ... Feel the same Baby, does it feel the same to you? Feel the same I gotta know, does it feel the same to you? Feel the same, You don't know what I'm going through Feel the same... Tokyo Rose... she knows!

Down below the border He robbed a bank in Mexico Half crazed on tequila He had a half million in gold There's thunder in the ground And he could hear the sound A showdown in the distance They're gonna ride him down [Chorus]: Bet your life on the silver ball, Spin it, 'round the wheel. Will it land on the black or the red? The outlaw's got no deal. Bet your life on the silver ball, Spin it, 'round the wheel. Will it land on the black or the red? The outlaw's got no deal. When he gambled with women He kept an ace up his sleeve He always got what he came for He never played it clean Then he was blinded by passion Playing in a game of fools Thought she was lucky Thought she was his best bet Guess you find out when you lose [Chorus] Bet your life on the silver ball, Spin it, 'round the wheel. Will it land on the black or the red? The outlaw's got no deal. Bet your life on the silver ball, Spin it, 'round the wheel. Will it land on the black or the red? The outlaw's got no deal. [Solo] [Chorus] Bet your life on the silver ball, Spin it, 'round the wheel. Will it land on the black or the red? The outlaw's got no deal. Bet your life on the silver ball, Spin it, 'round the wheel. Will it land on the black or the red? The outlaw's got no deal.

You took my money, baby You steal my cigarettes First chance I get I'll be up and jet - I'm gone You beat me up, you threw me out You killed my dog and cat. The "Ken-L-Ration" is yours But I want the "Friskies" back [Chorus]: Ooooh, don't bring me down Ooooh, don't bring me down No, no. You took my car, for just one night Out to cruise the scene, that's what you told me Now the engine's gone, the tailpipe's bent My 8-Track's playin', Spring-st-st-steen You call me a wimp, you say I'm a chump Well your face is bent And you smell like gorilla dump [Chorus] Ooooh, don't bring me down Ooooh, don't bring me down No, no, no. Hear what I say... hear what I said now? [Solo] [Chorus] Ooooh, don't bring me down No, no. Ooooh, don't ya bring me down Ooooh, don't ya bring me down Ooooh, don't ya bring me down No, no, no.

Tell me all your dreams, How you want your love to grow We'll sail across the ocean, There's so little that we know City streets so full of people, talkin' aimlessly Gotta climb above it all To a rainbow you can see, yeah [Chorus]: Don't hold back, There ain't no place to hide Don't hold back, There's a place, right by my side Don't hold back, There ain't no place to hide Let me be the crystal ship, To a diamond sky of love Don't hold back From a corner of the sky above We'll watch the days go by People going nowhere fast Puts light, in a weary eye I'll love you baby Give you all the love I've got Keep you cool from the sun, dry from the rain If you're cold ... I'll make you hot [Chorus] Don't hold back, There ain't no place to hide Don't hold back, There's a place right by my side Don't hold back, There ain't no place to hide Let me be the crystal ship, To a diamond sky of love Don't hold back [Solo] Anytime you see, The one you really need Go on find the time, Go on, let it shine Don't you remember? Tell me all your dreams, How you want your love to grow We'll sail across the ocean, There's so little that we know [Chorus] Don't hold back, There ain't no place to hide Don't hold back, There's a place, right by my side Don't hold back, There ain't no place to hide Let me be the crystal ship, To a diamond sky of love Don't hold back.

On the night, Through the fire and the light I hold my sword up, Lightning, it strikes out Reach for the light, Fight for my life A mystery 'till we meet, The fountain of the king [Chorus]: To the altar of the king To the altar of the king To the altar of the king Evenings' burning skies, Reflects upon my eyes Out in the distance, Utopia, resistance The power and the glory, Through wild woods calling Evil is flowing its own justice, to the fight At the altar of the king. [Chorus]: To the altar of the king. The altar of the king. Ohhh, ohhh. [Solo] [Chorus] To the altar of the king To the altar of the king To the altar of the king To the altar To the altar To the altar of the king I'm so near her, sight's so clearer Riding faster, riding faster Evil is calling me, yeah.

I'm feeling, just feeling, Seems like it's all inside No meaning, no grieving Just the way that I can't hide I'm praying, she's saying, No reason for me to disguise Love's waiting, and I'm taking So sorry, I tell you no lies. [Chorus]: No lies. Tell me no more lies No, no, no. No lies. Tell me no more lies Still trying, was crying Can you see, without open eyes? Love's going down, to a place, Where we can break our ties I'm praying, she's saying, No reason for me to disguise Love's waiting, but I'm taking So sorry, I tell you no lies. [Chorus] No lies, Tell me no more lies. No lies, Tell me no more lies. [Solo] [Chorus] No lies. Tell me no more lies No lies. No, no, no. Tell me no more lies No more lies.

I see trouble coming, Trying to change my ways Take a little piece of me And squeeze what blood remains Joke and jive, and fool you Slip that sugar past your nose Hope when all is said and done, You'll slip on an overdose [Chorus]: Run for your life Run for your life, run for your life. Run for your life Run for your life, run for your life. Who is it that they're fooling? Not this mothers son I'm screaming out for someone, Whose life ain't on the run I know what you're looking for, Just can't get enough Trapped inside a caged mind, Playing it ready and rough [Chorus] Run for your life Run for your life, run for your life. Run for your life Run for your life, run for your life. [Solo] You better run, run, run. You better run, run, run. You better run. Yes you have my loving, All your dirty tricks When you proved, you left a scar, And now I want my licks You're a sacred healer You're a victim of blind disease All the tears won't help you, Cause I want you on your knees [Chorus] Run for your life Run for your life, run for your life. Run for your life Run for your life Run for your life Run... RUN FOR YOUR LIFE !
