1. Instro




2. Ace Of Spades

If you like to gamble,
I tell you I'm your man
you win some you loose some
it's all the same for me

The pleasure is to play
it makes no difference what you say

I don't share your greed
the only card I need is

the ace of spades
the ace of spades

Playing for the high one
dicing with the devil
going with the flow
it's all a game to me.

Seven or eleven
snake eyes watching you

double up or quit
double stakes or split

the ace of spades
the ace of spades

you know I'm born to loose
and gambling is for fools
but that's the way I like it baby
I don't want to live forever
and don't forget the joker

Pushing up the ante
you know you want to see me
read'em up and weep
the dead man's hand again

I see it in your eyes
take one look and die

the only thing you see
you know it's gonna be

the ace of spades
the ace of spades




3. The Train Kept A Rollin'

I was alone, she was a woman,
I was a man, I never knew her name,
And she was pretty, New York City
I just gotta let it go,
The Train Kept A-Rollin' all night long

Get it on, cheap little woman get it on, on my way
Get it on, cheap little woman get it on, on my way
The Train Kept A-Rollin' all night long
The Train Kept A-Rollin' all night long




4. Lost Johnny

You only get a single chance
The rules are very plain,
The truth is well concealed inside
The details of the game,
You can hear it coming,
You can see it from afar,
It's pale and it glimmers
Like a faded movie star

And out there in the castle,
They're trying to make us scream,
By sticking thumb tags in a flash
And cancelling the dream,
Can you find the Valium,
Can you bring them soon,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Baying at the moon

The time has come for you to choose,
You'd better get it right,
Pulling girls with sharp white teeth
Are waiting in the night,
But you want to really get some,
It surely can't be hard,
There's always trouble lurking
When you leave your own backyard

Underneath the city,
The alligators sing,
Of how the fool he cannot dance,
When someone cuts the strings,
Can you find the morphine,
Try to be so brief,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Looking for relief

That laddie looks so evil,
And you know he really tries,
But every time he makes a play,
That battle compromise,
And shall I find their underwear,
From a store where no-one goes,
She makes it big in dugs,
On the strength of what she shows,

And here inside the waiting room,
The radio still screams,
And we're shooting children,
To murder all young things,
Can you find your credit card,
For god's sake make it quick,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Trying to turn a trick




5. Iron Horse/Born To Loose

He rides a road, that don't have no end,
An open highway, without any bends,
Tramp and his stallion, alone in a dream,
Proud in his colours, as the chromium gleams,
On Iron Horse he flies, on Iron Horse he gladly dies,
Iron Horse his wife, Iron Horse his life

He lives his life, he's living it fast,
Don't try to hide, when the dice have been cast,
He rides a whirlwind, that cuts to the bone,
Loaded forever, and righteously stoned,
On Iron Horse he flies, on Iron Horse he gladly dies,
Iron Horse his wife, Iron Horse his life

Yeah, slide it to me!

One day one day, they'll go for the sun,
Together they'll slide, on the eternal run,
Wasted forever, on speed bikes and booze,
Yeah tramp and the brothers, all born to lose,
On Iron Horse he flies, on Iron Horse he gladly dies,
Iron Horse his wife, Iron Horse his life




6. I'm Your Witchdoctor

I'm your witch doctor, got an evil eye
I'm your witch doctor, set souls on your fire
Gonna bring you love, in the midnight hour
Gonna feel you burning like a passion flower

I'm singing ....

Your witch doctor, your witch doctor
Got my eyes on you

I need a voodoo and that's at night
I'll be your voodoo in the morning light
Gonna bring you love, in the midnight hour
Gonna feel you burning like a passion flower

I'm singing ....

Your witch doctor, your witch doctor
Got my eyes on you
Your witch doctor, your witch doctor
Got my eyes on you
I got my mean old spell on you
I got my mean old spell on you
Your witch doctor, your witch doctor
Got my eyes on you
I'm your witch doctor, got an evil eye
I'm your witch doctor, set souls on your fire
Gonna bring you love, in the midnight hour
Gonna feel you burning like a passion flower

I'm singing ....
Your witch doctor, your witch doctor
Got my eyes on you




7. Bomber (live)

Ain't a hope in hell,
Nothing's gonna bring us down,
The way we fly,
Five miles off the ground,
Because we shoot to kill,
And you know we always will,
It's a Bomber

Scream a thousand miles,
Feel the black death rising moan,
Firestorm coming closer,
Napalm to the bone,
Because, you know we do it right,
A mission every night,
It's a Bomber

No night fighter,
Gonna stop us getting through,
The sirens make you shiver,
You bet my aim is true,
Because, you know we aim to please,
Bring you to your knees,
It's a Bomber




8. Beerdrinkers And Hellraisers

If you see me walkin' down the line
With my fav'rite honky tonk in mind,
Well, I'll be here around suppertime
With my can of dinner and a bunch of fine.

Beer drinkers and hell raisers, yeah.
Uh-huh-huh, baby, don't you wanna come with me?

The crowd gets loud when the band gets right,
Steel guitar cryin' through the night.
Yeah, try'n to cover up the corner fight
But ev'rything's cool 'cause they's just tight.

Beer drinkers and hell raisers, yeah.
Huh, baby, don't you wanna come with me?
Ah, play it boy.

The joint was jumpin' like a cat on hot tin.
Lord, I thought the floor was gonna give in.
Soundin' a lot like a House Congressional
'Cause we're experimental and professional.

Beer drinkers, hell raisers, yeah.
Well, baby, don't you wanna come with me?




9. You Shoot In The Back

Western movies!

The riders ride, into the night,
Into the West, to see who's gun's the best,
They're all fools, to live by rules,
The rider wearing black,
He's gonna Shoot You In The Back

The horseman turns, the wound that burns,
The awful pain, the crimson rain,
Got realise, before he dies,
The rider wearing black,
You know he's gonna Shoot You In The Back

It's suicide, to live on pride,
You claim you own, your skin your bone,
Your own life, cuts you like a knife,
The rider wearing black,
He's gonna Shoot You In The Back

In the Western movies!




10. White Line Fever
