WHEEL IN THE SKY • JOURNEY Oh Wheel in the sky keeps on turning I don't know where I'll be tomorrow Wheel in the sky keeps me yearning I don't know, I don't know Wheel in the sky keeps on turning
CANT FIGHT THIS FEELING • REO SPEEDWAGON And I can't fight this feeling anymore I've forgotten what I started fighting for It's time to bring the ship into the shore And throw away the oars, forever Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore I've forgotten what I started fightung for And if I have to crawl upon the floor Come crashing through your door Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore
SURRENDER • CHEAP TRICK Mommy's alright Daddy's alright They just seem a little weird Surrender Surrender But don't give yourself away Hey, hey
COLD AS ICE • FOREIGNER I've seen it before I happens all the time You're closing the door, you leave the world behind You're digging for gold, yet throwing away A fortune in feelings but some day you'll pay
SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLE • MUSE Glaciers melting in the dead of night And the superstars sucked into the supermassive (Oooh, you set my soul slight) Glaciers melting in the dead of night And the superstars sucked into the... (Oooh, you set my soul-) Into the supermassive
RENEGADE • STYX Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law Law man had put an end to my running and I'm so far from my home Oh Mama I can hear you cryin', you're so scared and all alone Hangman is comin' down from the gallows and I don't have very long (YEAH) The jig is up, the news is out They finally found me The renegade who had it made Retrieved for a bounty Never more to go astray This'll be the end today Of the wanted man
KNOCKIN' ON HEAVENS DOOR • BOB DYLAN Mama take this badge from me I can't use it anymore It's getting too dark, too dark to see I feel like I'm knocking on heavens door
Knock, knock, knocking on heavens door
HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN • THE ANIMALS There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy And God I know I'm one
ROOSTER • ALICE IN CHAINS Ain't found a way to kill me yet Eyes burn with stinging sweat Seems every path leads me to nowhere Wife and kids, household pet Army green was no safe bet The bullets scream to me from somewhere
Here they come to snuff the rooster Yeah here come the rooster, yeah You know he ain't gonna die No, no, no, you know he ain't gonna die
