Power and the Glory Lyrics

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)

And The Bands Played On

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
