Van Halen - Blood and Fire Lyrics

Editor's comments:
Here's a new Van Halen song which is set to appear on the band's new album, “A Different Kind of Truth” (scheduled for release on February 7th, 2012).
The track is titled "Blood and Fire" and, unlike other songs on the album which are demos recorded in the 70s, this track is a brand new one.

Van Halen – Blood and Fire Lyrics

You can always tell the winners
The saints and the sinners
Down at the starting line
I’m a lucid vision
Of the unforgiven
I’m your wave-toss guy

King-size, we were crushin’
Trouble by the dozen
Stakes have never been higher
Come back when you’re younger
Cuz I can feel the thunder
1-800-GUITAR

OOOOOOHHHHH YEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
We came… we came… we came through blood and fire
We came… we came… we came through blood and fire
Now look at all of the people here tonight…

It’s a world of fools
That’s just what’s expected
None of ’em know it
Or even suspect it
God must love the lazy
Shiftless and the crazy
Puttin’ so many in life

OOOOOOHHHHH YEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH

We came… we came… we came through blood and fire
We came… we came… we came through blood and fire
Now look at all of the people here tonight…

Forgotten empires
Lost victories long past
Every time I bloomed again
I thought it was the last
And then something crazy happens
and… BOOM!
I’m doing the victory dance!

Told ya I was comin’ back…
(Told Ya!)
Say you missed me…
(Say it!)
Say it like ya mean it!

(GUITAR SOLO!)

You can always tell the winners
The saints and the sinners
Down at the starting line…

OOOOOOHHHHH YEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
We came… we came… we came through blood and fire
We came… we came… we came through blood and fire
We came… we came… we came through blood and fire
