1. Manowar
We met on English ground
in a backstage room
We heard the sound
And we all knew what we had to do
We called the high command
Requested leave to make a stand
And in the field we grew
And we all knew
Soon the time would come
For us to fight,
Destination
now in sight
Oooh, Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
Our fight will never end
So we called on partisans
To raise your hands
And take our stand
Look sharp
when duty calls
Where we march
cities fall
And the strong survive
And take our side
Now the time has come
For us to fight
Target waiting
In our sights
Oooh, Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
2. Kings of Metal
Every one of us has heard the call
Brothers of True Metal proud and standing tall
We know the power within us has brought us to this hall
there's magic in the metal there's magic in us all
Heavy metal or no metal at all whimps and posers leave the hall
Heavy metal or no metal at all whimps and posers go on get out
Leave the hall
Now the world must listen to our decree
We don't turn down for anyone we do just what we please
got to make it louder, all men play on ten
If you're not into metal, you are not my friend
Heavy metal or no metal at all whimps and posers leave the hall
Heavy metal or no metal at all whimps and posers I said
Leave the hall
Now the world must listen to our decree
We don't turn down for anyone we do just what we please
Got to make it louder, all men play on ten
If you're not into metal, you are not my friend
There's metal in the air tonite, can you hear it call
If you ain't got the balls, to take it you can
Leave the hall
Heavy metal or no metal at all whimps and posers leave the hall
Heavy metal or no metal at all whimps and posers leave the hall
3. Kill With Power
Hear what's written on the wind
We come to kill and kill again
Our arrows fall like hail
Trample on the dead
Ride through the gate of clouds
Stand on the open step
Run berserk spreading fear and pain
Black shield and weapons, black our chain
None can harm us not their fire, iron or steel
For we have the will to power
With power we will kill
Kill with power
Die die
Kill with power
Die die
To the war God Odin you will pray
And the curse of weapons shall remain
On the blood of all our fathers
On their weapons we now swear
To avenge, not lament
Give the false ones death
Kill with power
Die die
Kill with power
Die die
4. Sign of the Hammer
The spell has been broken, the curse has been lifted
Black is the wind on the heels of the gifted
Four sworn to vengeane, see the hate in our eyes
Called by the Gods and given a sign
Onward pounding into glory ride
Sign of the hammer be my guide
Final warning, all stand aside
Sign of the hammer it's my time
Pounding pounding, we're back from the dead
Those who denied us are delievered instead
Into the hands of four sworn to ride
Now the people will triumph and live by the sign
Onward pounding into glory ride
Sign of the hammer be my guide
Final warning, all stand aside
Sign of the hammer it's my time
The spell has been broken, the curse has been lifted
Black is the wind on the heels of the gifted
Four sworn to vengeane, see the hate in our eyes
Called by the Gods and given a sign
Onward pounding into glory ride
Sign of the hammer be my guide
Final warning, all stand aside
Old men and young boys, it's my time
Sign of the hammer it's my time
Sign of the hammer be my guide
Sign of the hammer be my guide
Sign of the hammer it's my time
5. My Spirit Lives On

Guitar solo..
6. Piano Interlude
7. Courage
Some Want To Think Hope Is Lost See Me Stand Alone
I Can't Do What Others May Want Then I'll Have No Home
So For Now Wave Good-bye And Leave Your Hands Held High
Hear This Song Of Courage Long Into The Night
So For Now Wave Good-bye Leave Your Hands Held High
Hear This Song Of Courage Long Into The Night
And The Wind Will Bear My Cry To All Who Hope To Fly
Hear This Song Of Courage Ride Into The Night
Battles Are Fought By Those With The Courage To Believe
They Are Won By Those Who Find The Heart
Find A Heart To Share
This Heart That Fills The Soul Will Point The Way To Victory
If There's A Fight Then I'll Be There I'll Be There
So For Now Wave Good-bye, Leave Your Hands Held High
Hear This Song Of Courage Long Into The Night
And The Wind Will Bear My Cry To All Who Hope To Fly
Lift Your Wings Up High My Friend Fearless To The End
So For Now Wave Good-bye, Leave Your Hands Held High
Hear This Song Of Courage Long Into The Night
8. Spirit Horse of the Cherokee
The trail of tears began for all the Cherokee
The white men came to trade & borrow but then they would not leave
Some of us were taken by boat, and died at sea
Those of us who lived were sold to slavery
We welcomed them as brothers knowing nothing of their greed
Born hunters not the hunted as the white man hunts for me
We are descendants of the animals we live among the free
Our trail of tears would end one day at Wounded Knee.
Great Spirit, thunder birds fly, we are wild and free
To fight and die by the open sky, Spirit Horse ride for me
When we do the Ghost Dance, the buffalo will return
Paint ourselves for war, now blood and fire burn
Great Spirit makes us strong, take us to the sky
The Cherokee are brave, we are not afraid to die
Great Spirit, thunder birds fly, we are wild and free
To fight and die by the open sky, Spirit Horse ride for me
Red Cloud, Black Hawk, Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, Geronimo
Strong and brave warriors to the grave
There has been much killing there will be much more
The Medicine Man is dancing he's calling us to war,
Hatchets sing with pride let the white men die
Great Spirit, thunder birds fly, we are wild and free
To fight and die by the open sky, Spirit Horse ride for me
9. Blood of My Enemies
Three sons have I and they ride by my side
The fierce, the black and the wicked are their names
We ride down my enemies on their half hearted flight
No voice of mercy, no evangels of light
Mighty messengers heathens rage
Witness our coming, the Gods of the dead
I ride through the air, I laugh as I die
With powers of evil dark knowledge is mine
The ride of the wicked, the first sin was trust
Kill without warning for blood now I lust
Strong winds magic mist
To Asgard the valkries fly
High overhead they carry the dead
Where the blood of my enemy lies
Three sons have I and they ride by my side
The fierce, the black and the wicked are their names
We ride down my enemies on their half hearted flight
No voice of mercy, no evangels of light
Strong winds magic mist
To Asgard the valkries fly
High overhead they carry the dead
Where the blood of my enemy lies
10. Hail and Kill
Brothers I am calling from the valley of the kings
With nothing to atone
A dark march lies ahead together we will ride
Like thunder from the sky
May your sword stay wet like a young girl in her prime
Hold your hammers high
Blood and death are waiting like a raven in the sky
I was born to die
Hear me while I live as I look into your eyes
None shall hear a lie
Power and dominion are taken by the will
By divine right hail and kill
Hail and Kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill
Hail and Kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill
My father was a wolf, I'm a kinsman of the slain
Sworn to rise again
I will bring salvation, punishment and pain
The hammer of hate is our faith
Power and dominion are taken by the will
By divine right hail and kill
Hail and Kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill
Hail and Kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill
Rip their flesh
Burn their hearts
Stab them in their eyes
Rape their women as they cry
Kill their servants
Burn their homes
Till there's no blood left to spill
Hail and Kill
Power and dominion are taken by the will
By divine right hail and kill
Hail and Kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill
Hail and Kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill
Hail and Kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill
Hail and Kill
Hail, hail, hail and kill
11. Warriors of the World
12. Battle Hymn
By moonlight we ride ten thousands side by side
With swords drawn held high our whips and armour shine
Hail to thee our infantry still brave beyond the grave
All sworn the eternal vow the time to strike is now
Kill, kill
Kill, kill
Kill, kill
Kill, kill
Gone are the days when freedom shone now blood and steel meet bone
In the light of the battle's way the sands of time will shake
How proud our soldiers stand with mace and chain in hand
Sound of charge into glory ride over the top of their vanguished 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
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
