1. This Town Rocks (Stockholm 2005)
Does this town know how to rock
This town knows how to rock
This town knows how to rock
This town knows how to rock
This town knows how to rock
We're gonna Saxonize
You're gonna vandalize your soul
It does no good to sit there
Stand up and rock 'n' roll
We know what your doin' here
We'll start a ballroom blitz
So come on down and rock with us
We'll blow this town to bits
Well I ain't seen a crowd like this
Since nineteen seventy four
I wanna see you rock tonight
We're gonna lock the doors, yaya
This town knows how to rock
This town knows how to rock
This town knows how to rock
This town knows how to rock
I've walked the streets of London
And I've been to Tokyo
I've seen the Coliseum
And I've grasped the Berlin wall
I've heard the bands of Scotland
I've seen the Alpine snow
I've crossed the Mississippi
I've touched the Alamo
Well I ain't seen a crowd like this
Since nineteen seventy four
I wanna see you rock tonight
We're gonna lock the doors, yaya
This town knows how to rock
This town knows how to rock
This town knows how to rock
This town...
This town knows how to rock
This town knows how to rock
This town knows how to rock
This town...
Does this town know how to rock
2. Backs To The Wall (Nuremberg 2005)
People pushin' like I don't know (*)
I'm gonna live my life like I wanted to
My hopes shot down, my backs to the wall
But I've got my pride
They can't take it all
I've got my pride
They can't take that away
You've got your pride
They can't take that away
[Repeat *]
I've got my pride
They can't take that away
I've got my pride
They can't take that away
I'm gonna be free
Gonna be free
Can't take my life away (**)
They can't take my life away
Take my life away
[Repeat **]
Take my life away
Take my life away
Back's to the wall
I'm starting to fall
Make your stand, no man's land
Will nobody give me a helping hand
Put me down, wipe me out
Do what you like but I'll put up a fight
I'm goin' to the wall [Repeat]
Goin' to the wall
3. Redline (Hamburg 2005)
Hey baby, why don't ya come and ride with me
Like a bullet I'm the fastest thing you've ever seen
Hey mamma can you hear the monster scream
Feel the power riding in my mean machine
Just me and my machine out on the highway
Just me and my machine I'll take you tonight
To the redline
Like lighting it's the only way I get my fun
Don't stop me I gotta let my motor run
Sensation running up and down my spine
Celebration streaking past the winning line
Just me and my machine out on the highway
Just me and my machine I'll take you tonight
To the redline
Hey baby, why don't ya come and ride with me
Like a bullet I'm the fastest thing you've ever seen
Hey mamma can you hear the monster scream
Feel the power riding in my mean machine
Just me and my machine out on the highway
Just me and my machine I'll take you tonight
To the redline
To the redline
I'll take ya tonight
To the redline
Redline
4. Stand Up And Be Counted (Berlin 2005)
Down, down at the bottom
Ya gotta try to get yourselves up
Ya got nothing to lose when your there
There at the bottom
Ya gotta stand up
Stand up for your rights
We can make it
You can break it
Stand up
Stand up be counted
Out, out in the spotlight
Ya gotta leave, leave your worries behind
Ya got nothing to lose when your there
You be forgotten
Well I'll be damning out lives
While the damn us in hell
We can make it
You can break it
Stand up
Stand up be counted
We can make it
We can break it
Stand up
Stand up be counted
Down, down at the bottom
Ya gotta leave all your worries behind
Ya got nothing to lose when you're there
There at the bottom
Ya gotta stand up
Stand up for your rights
We can make it
You can break it
Stand up
Stand up be counted
Stand up, stand up!
5. Never Surrender (Berlin 2005)
I was born on the back streets
On the rotten side of town
I never had me nothin'
Just people puttin' me down
Living on the dark side
Across the railroad track
Leaving wasn't easy
But I'm never going back
Never surrender
When you're up against the world
Never surrender
Stand up fight them all
Never surrender
When you're up against the world
Never surrender
Stand up fight them all
I'm sticking in the fast lane
I never wanna quit
I'm taking all my chances
I'm gonna take 'em quick
I started at the bottom
But I'm headed to the top
Ain't nobody gonna have me boy
'Cause I'm never gonna stop
Never surrender
When you're up against the world
Never surrender
Stand up fight them all
Never surrender
When you're up against the world
Never surrender
Stand up fight them all
I was born on the back streets
On the rotten side of town
I never had me nothin'
Just people puttin' me down
I'm living on the darkside
Across the railroad track
Leaving wasn't easy
But I'm never going back
Never surrender
When you're up against the world
Never surrender
Stand up fight them all
[Repeat to end]
6. Frozen Rainbow (Fulda 2005)
Far below the valleys
Hidden deep beneath the snow
There's a man who guards the secret
Of the frozen rainbow
...of all the ages
Lies hidden neath the ice
The man who finds the secret
Holds the power of life
Far below the valleys
Hidden deep beneath the snow
There's a man who's got a secret
Waiting to be told
I've searched through all the ages
To find the hidden truth
The secret of the rainbow
Will never be revealed
I'll find the rainbow, frozen rainbow
I'll find the rainbow, frozen rainbow
7. Suzie Hold On (Nuremberg 2005)
I wish I had a fortune
I'd take the pain away
We could be together
That's how we need to stay
'Cause you can change the world
The world in which you live in, live in
Suzie hold on
Do everything you believe to be right
Doing it all the time
Fighting the fight you believe to be right
Doing it all the time
When we were far apart
No one could be closer
Please don't take your life
'Cause that would break my heart
Try to stop your crying
We both know you're dying, dying
Suzie hold on
Do everything you believe to be right
Doing it all the time
Fighting the fight you believe to be right
Doing it all the time
I wish I had a fortune
I'd take your pain away
We could be together
That's how we need to stay
'Cause you can change the world
The world in which we live in, live in
Suzie hold on
Don't you know that you can change the world
Don't you know that you can change the world
Change the world, you can change the world
Suzie you can change the world
I can't stop you crying
Even though you're dying
8. Play It Loud (Nuremberg 2005)
I was driving down the highway my music playing loud
I drove into a truckstop stepped up feelin' proud
The stupid gas attendant said "stop that fucking row"
There's always someone somewhere who'll try and turn you down
So if you need some action and nothing comes around
Don't call the doctor turn up the sound
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
I was lying on the beach taking the rays
Listening to Deep Purple reminiscing of old days
I was hassled by a lifeguard so I kicked him to the ground
There's always someone somewhere who'll try and turn you down
So if you need some action and nothing comes around
Don't call the doctor turn up the sound
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
I'm sick of people saying our music is too loud
They never stop complaining, try to turn us down
But if you want it louder we'll turn it up full blast
They'll never stop the music they're living in the past
So if you need some action and nothing comes around
Don't call the doctor turn up the sound
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
[Repeat to end]
9. Warrior (Nuremberg 2005)
They land on your shore
Kick down your door
Invaders from over the sea
They rape and they slaughter
Your wives and your daughter
Pillage the wealth from your land
Where do they come from these warrior hoards
When their death and destruction to you
They come with the thunder
To kill and to plunder
Pillage the wealth from your land
So build you defenses against the invader
The tyrant from over the sea
Warrior came, warrior saw, warrior conquered
Warrior came, warrior saw, warrior conquered
The village is peaceful
No sign of danger
People at work in the fields
Then they hit you like lightning
Screaming and fighting
Gunning you down in the wheat
Over the border
The raiding marauder
Carry this wealth to the sea
So you bury your dead
Put out the fires
But the death will be back with the tide
So build you defenses against the invader
The tyrant from over the sea
Warrior came, warrior saw, warrior conquered
Warrior came, warrior saw, warrior conquered
They land on your shore
Kick down your door
Invaders from over the sea
They rape and they slaughter
Your wives and your daughter
Pillage the wealth from your land
Were do they come from these warrior hoards
When their death and destruction to you
They come with the thunder
To steal and to plunder
Spilling your blood on the ground
So build you defenses against the invader
The tyrant from over the sea
Warrior came, warrior saw, warrior conquered
Warrior came, warrior saw, warrior conquered
Warrior came, warrior saw, warrior conquered
Warrior came, warrior saw, warrior conquered
10. See The Lights Shining (Hamburg 2005)

11. To Hell And Back Again (Hamburg 2005)
How long must I stay
How long must I go on
Taking my chances I'm running away
Don't take away my daylight
Don't take away my freedom
Why must I go
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
Will I make the morning
To see another day
The Gods may come at midnight
They're taking me away
I'm waiting here on death row
I pray for my reprieve
Why must I go
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
The chaplain and the gardener
Have told me how to die
I've used up all my chances
Now's the time to cry
Oh, I can hear the footsteps
The lights have just gone dim
I'm on the final journey
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
Will I make the morning
To see another day
The Gods may come at midnight
They're taking me away
I'm standin' here on death row
I pray for my reprieve
Why must I go
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
The chaplain and the gardener
Have told me how to die
I've used up all my chances
Now's my time to cry
Oh, I can hear the footsteps
The lights have just gone dim
I'm on my final journey
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
To hell and back again
12. Stallions Of The Highway (Fulda 2005)
Friday night, I feel all right (*)
I get into my leathers
And I get out on my bike
There's thunder in my ears
It's blasting down...
Kickin' up brick
I don't give a shit
I got the wind in my hair
You know I don't even care
Stallions of the highway
Switchblade's gleamin'
Engine screamin'
I'm laughin' at fate
I'm living to hate
My knees are showing red
I'm ridin' with the dead
Get out of my way
I'm a stallion of the highway
I got the wind in my hair
I don't even care
I broke out of my shell
I'm on a daydream from hell
Don't shed no tears
I been here fifteen years
[Repeat *]
My knees are showing red
I'm ridin' with the dead
Get out of my way
I got the wind in my hair
I don't even care
Stallions of the highway
Of the highway
13. Wheels Of Steel (Nuremberg 2005)
Oww
When my foots on the throttle there's no looking back
I leave the motor tickin' over when she's back on the track
I've got a 68 Chevy with pipes on the side
You know she's my idea of beauty, that's what I drive
She's got wheels, wheels of steel
She's got wheels of steel
Wheels of steel
Talking 'bout my wheels of steel
I don't take no jibe from the motorway pigs
When I'm crusin' down the freeway I don't get no lifts
If you see me coming get out of my way
You know a Trans Am didn't, I blew it away
She's got wheels, wheels of steel
She's got wheels of steel
Wheels of steel
My my my my wheels of steel
I'm burnin' aviation fuel my foot's to the floor
Ya know she's crusin one-forty she'd do even more
I'm burnin' solid rubber I don't take no bull
'Cause my wheels of steel are rolling
They're rolling your way
She's got wheels, wheels of steel
Wheels of steel
My my my wheels of steel
Wheels of steel
Talking 'bout my wheels of steel
Look out, uh
I'm burnin' aviation fuel my foot's to the floor
Ya know she's crusin' one- forty she'd do even more
I'm burnin' solid rubber I don't take no bull (shit)
'Cause my wheels of steel are rolling
If you're comin' come quick
She's got wheels, wheels of steel
She's got wheels of steel
Wheels of steel
My my my wheels of steel
Wheels of steel
Talking 'bout my wheels of steel
Wheels of steel
Wheels of steel
My my wheels of steel
Uh, ya, wheels of steel
[Repeat to end]
14. And The Bands Played On (Wacken 2004)
Just before dawn in the cold light
We came out of the night
A great expectation from the man who ran the show
Will it rain, will it snow, will it shine, we don't know
Are there clouds up in the sky
We sat in the sun, woah-oh-oh
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
See the people, feel the power
There was sixty thousand there
Just like thunder the crowds began to roar
Where you there, did ya know, did ya see all the show
There was magic in the air
We sat in the sun woah-oh-oh
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
See the rainbow shining brightly
Shooting rockets to the sky
Making music and it rolled on through the night
You could hear on the air rock n' roll everywhere
We were strangers in the night
We sat in the sun woah-oh-oh
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
And the bands played on
15. Crusader (Wacken 2004)
(Who dares battle the Saracen)
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
16. Travellers Time (Wacken 2004)
Two thousand years they stand behind us
Are we just travellers in time
We face the phantoms of our future
They face destruction of their kind
These, these are the days
These, these are the times
Are we just travellers in time
The ancient stones of time they call us
To hear their mystic prophecies
They've stood in silence they're immortal
Forgotton page of history
These, these are the days
These, these are the times
Are we just travellers in time
Are we just travellers in time
The crystal powers they will take you
Far across the sands of time
Searching ever for an answer
What's the future of mankind
These, these are the days
These, these are the times
Are we just travellers in time
Are we just travellers in time
Are we just travellers in time
Are we just travellers in time
In time, time, time, time, time
17. Solid Ball Of Rock (Wacken 2004)
One night in Louisiana down by highway eighty four
You could hear a strange dog howling right outside his mamma'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 hand
The boy with jackhawk eyes became the leader of the band
The connoisseur of rhythm, rock 'n' 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
It's shaking all over but he don't know why
The devil went to Memphis as he flew into the sun
He howled about redemption with a bible and a gun
The preacher beat his cheast and cried, "set my people free"
The killer said "I'll drag ya to the gates of hell with me"
Solid ball of rock
Solid ball of rock
Solid ball of rock crashing out of the sky
It's shaking all over but he don't know why
Solid ball of rock
Solid ball of rock
Solid ball of rock
The killer he was born again and saw gates of hell
The preacher found redemption in a Jacksonville motel
The devil takes the hindmost they're running out of breath
They're gonna have to reckon with the chilling hand of death
Solid ball of rock
Solid ball of rock
Solid ball of rock crashing out of the sky
It's shaking all over but he don't know why
Solid ball of rock
Solid ball of rock
Solid ball of rock crashing out of the sky
It's shaking all over but he don't know why
