Back In the Day

[00:16.53] Where were you when it happened?
[00:18.49] Where could you be found?
[00:20.58] Were you at the front of the stage?
[00:22.47] Or in the underground?
[00:24.55] From SF out to Old Bridge
[00:26.60] New York back to LA
[00:28.73] The world of metal changed forever
[00:31.24] Back in the day
[00:34.17] Well that was back in the day
[00:36.30] And if you weren't there
[00:38.28] It doesn't matter anyway
[00:40.71] Because you wouldn't understand
[00:44.55]
[00:49.39] Live to die and die to play
[00:51.46] Every day and place
[00:53.14] Leave a path of metal
[00:54.59] Across the world from stage to stage
[00:58.79] Well that was back in the day
[01:00.73] And if you weren't there
[01:02.80] It doesn't matter anyway
[01:04.86] Because you wouldn't understand
[01:08.18]
[01:13.59] In denim and leather
[01:15.67] We were all part of one force
[01:17.79] Knocked Rock and Roll on its ass
[01:19.44] And put metal on the course
[01:22.10] Higher!
[01:26.21] Higher!
[01:30.39] Higher!
[01:34.41] Higher!
[01:36.82]
[01:40.42] Back in the day
[01:44.10] You weren't there
[01:47.63] It doesn't matter
[01:52.55] Because you wouldn't understand
[01:54.50] This is our way of life
[01:56.72] A life that was born free
[01:58.82] To follow orders how to live
[02:00.75] Was never meant to be
[02:03.02] Oh, oh oh oh oh-oh
[02:11.17] Peals of thunder, sheets of lighting
[02:13.00] The power hits the stage
[02:15.19] The music was exciting
[02:17.15] The mania raged
[02:19.68] Oh, oh oh oh oh-oh
[02:24.68]
[02:27.49] We all had the fever
[02:29.55] Our ears started to ring
[02:31.74] Feeding this wildfire
[02:33.65] Consuming everything
[02:36.04] Oh, oh oh oh oh-oh
[02:44.14] Metal's King back then
[02:45.98] And still is to this day
[02:47.94] Others imitate or challenge
[02:49.91] But it never goes away
[02:52.47] Oh, oh oh oh-oh
[02:57.47]
