Megadeth - Back in the Day lyrics
[Megadeth - Back in the Day lyrics]
Where were you when it happened?
Where could you be found?
Were you at the front of the stage
Or in the underground?
From SF out to Old Bridge
New York back to LA
The world of metal changed forever
Back in the day
Well that was back in the day
And if you weren't there
It doesn't matter anyway
Because you wouldn't understand
Live to die and die to play
Every day and place leave a path of metal
Across the world from stage to stage
Well that was back in the day
And if you weren't there
It doesn't matter anyway
Because you wouldn't understand
In denim and leather
We were all part of one force
Knocked rock and roll on it's ass
And put metal on the course
Higher! Higher! Higher! Higher!
Back in the day you weren't there
It doesn't matter
Because you wouldn't understand
This is our way of life
A life that was born free
To follow orders how to live
Was never meant to be oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
Peals of thunder, sheets of lightning
The power hit's the stage
The music was exciting the mania raged
Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
We all had the fever
Our ears started to ring
Feeding this wildfire consuming everything
Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
Metals king back then and still to this day
Others imitate or challenge
But it never goes away oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
Where could you be found?
Were you at the front of the stage
Or in the underground?
From SF out to Old Bridge
New York back to LA
The world of metal changed forever
Back in the day
Well that was back in the day
And if you weren't there
It doesn't matter anyway
Because you wouldn't understand
Live to die and die to play
Every day and place leave a path of metal
Across the world from stage to stage
Well that was back in the day
And if you weren't there
It doesn't matter anyway
Because you wouldn't understand
In denim and leather
We were all part of one force
Knocked rock and roll on it's ass
And put metal on the course
Higher! Higher! Higher! Higher!
Back in the day you weren't there
It doesn't matter
Because you wouldn't understand
This is our way of life
A life that was born free
To follow orders how to live
Was never meant to be oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
Peals of thunder, sheets of lightning
The power hit's the stage
The music was exciting the mania raged
Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
We all had the fever
Our ears started to ring
Feeding this wildfire consuming everything
Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
Metals king back then and still to this day
Others imitate or challenge
But it never goes away oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
