Hail Brothers And Sisters Of True Metal !
Here's the first part of the lyrics of MANOWARS BATTLE HYMNS-Album (Dark
Avenger, Metal Daze, Death Tone and Battle Hymn) which haven't been
released before, i'm trying to get the rest (MANOWAR, FAST TAKER and SHELL
SHOCK) as soon as I can.
Dark Avenger
------------
He Broke The Laws Of The Elders
So They Blot Out His Eye
Took His Land And Fortune
Left Him To Die
Bound On A Shore Line
Left For The Tide
Sees His Life Blood Leaving
Circling Lower The Vultures Fly
These Bones May Be Broken
But The Spirit Cant Die
And The Gods See His Anguish
And Give Him A Sign
>From The Floor Of The Ocean
The Ship Of The Lost Souls Rise
And They Take Him
Where No One Sleeps
While The Undead Cry
Where No One Sleeps
While The Undead Cry
And In The World Above
The Elders Sing
On His Land They Live
Let Death's Bell Ring
He Was Met At The Gate Of Hades
By The Guardian Of The Lost Souls
The Keeper Of The Unavenged
And He Did Say To Him:
"Let Him Not Pass Abaddon
Return To The World From Whence You Came
And Seek Payment, Not Only For Thine Own Anguish
But Vindicate The Souls Of The Unavenged"
And They Placed In His Hand
A Sword Made For Him Called Vengeance
Forged In Brimstone
And Tempered By The Woeful Tears
Of The Unavenged
And To Carry Him On His Journey
Back To The Upperworld
They Brought Forth Their Demon Horse
Called Black Death, A Grim Steed,
So Fiercely In Might And Black In Colour
That He Could Stand As One With Darkness
Save For His Burning Eyes And Crimson Fire
And On That Night They Rode Up From Hell
The Pounding Of His Hooves
Did Clap Like Thunder
Burning, Death, Destruction
Raping The Daughters And Wives
In Blood I Take My Payment
In All With Their Lives
No One Can Escape Me,
On Black Death I Ride
When Kissed By The Sword Of Vengeance
Your Head Lays There By Your Side
I Take The Lives Of All That I Once Knew
The Torn Flesh Of A Slow Death Waits For You
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/manowar/battle_hymns_crd.html ]
Burning, Death, Destruction
Raping Their Daughters And Wives
In Blood I Take My Payment
In All With Their Lives
I Spare Not Land Or Servants
My Way Is Shrewd And Planned
I Take Their Wives And Daughters
They Stand Their Watching
Hoping To Gain Their Lives
But When I'm Trough They Know That They Must Pay
Burning, Death, Destruction
Raping Their Daughters And Wives
In Blood I Take My Payment
In All With Their Lives
Death Tone
----------
Ridin'On Two Wheels
Chains Locked On My Heels
Sitting In Leather,
Riding Up The Hill
Put My Shades On
Hair Blows In The Wind
I Give Some Square The Finger
Now He Want Look Again
No He Want
You Were Sitting Home
And I've Got Sent To 'Nam
I Went To The Big House,
You Just Worked A Job
Hear Me Coming
Can't You Hear My Death Tone
Hear Me Coming
Can't You Hear My Death Tone
Hear Me Ride
On Into The Night
Pull Alongside If You're Looking For A Fight
My Social Worker's Got Me On A Chain
Keeps Me Outta Jail So The Paper Prints His Name
Yes It Does, And He Likes It
Unemployment Checks Run Out Next Week
It Won't Be Very Long
Till I'm Back On The Streets Again
You Were Sitting Home
And I've Got Sent To 'Nam
I Went To The Big House,
You Just Worked A Job
Hear Me Coming
Can't You Hear My Death Tone
Hear Me Coming
Can't You Hear My Death Tone
Hear Me Ride
On Into The Night
Pull Alongside If You're Looking For A Fight
Death Tone, Death Tone
Gonna Ride On My Death Tone,
Yes I Am
I'm Gonna Ride On Ya Tonight
Death Tone
METAL DAZE
__________
I Hear The Sound
In A Metal Way
I Feel The Power
Rolling Off The Stage
'Cause Only One Thing Really Sets Me Free
Heavy Metal, Loud As It Can Be,
Yeah
Baby I Was Born To Play Music
I'm The Man With The Sreaming Guitar
But There's A Light In The 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 Jeans And A Riff As Mean
And Girls That Love To Share
Heavy Metal, Heavy Metal Daze
Heavy Metal, Heavy Metal Daze
Heavy Metal, Heavy Metal Daze
Living Like There's Now Tomorrow
Yeah Currie Says We're All On The Edge
He Says, Men You're Really Graphic
This Band A Social Wedge
Well We All Got Hearts Made Of Metal
And Our Blood Is Of Molten Rock
And If I Don't Hear The Sound Of Metal
I Go Into Shock
Heavy Metal, Heavy Metal Daze
Heavy Metal, Heavy Metal Daze
Heavy Metal, Heavy Metal Daze
So Mister DeeJay Play Just One For Me
You Know The One
With The Crashing And The Screams
'Cause Only One Thing Really Sets Me Free
Heavy Metal, Loud As It Can Be
Heavy Metal, Heavy Metal Daze
Heavy Metal, Heavy Metal Daze
Heavy Metal, Heavy Metal Daze
Heavy Metal, Loud As It Can Be
BATTLE HYMN
___________
By Moonlight We Ride
Ten Thousand Side By Side
With Swords Drawn, Held High
Our Whips And Armour Shine
Hail To Thee Our Infantry
Still Brave, Beyond The Grave
All Sword The Eternal Vow
The Time To Strike Is Now
Kill, Kill, Kill
Kill, Kill, Kill
Kill, Kill, Kill
Kill, Kill, Kill
Gone Are The Daze When Freedom Shone
Now Blood And Steel Meet Bone
In The Light Of The Battle's Wake
The Sense Of Time Will Shake
How Proud Our Soldiers Stand
With Mace And Chain In Hand
Sound The Charge Into Glory Ride
Over The Top Of Their Vanquished 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
Kill, Kill, Kill
Kill, Kill, Kill
Kill, Kill, Kill
Kill, Kill, Kill
Sound The Charge Into Glory Ride
Over The Top Of Their Vanquished Pride
By Moonlight We Ride
Ten Thousand Side By Side
Kill, Kill, Kill
Kill, Kill, Kill
Kill, Kill, Kill
Kill, Kill, Kill
