Megadeth Back In The Day Lyrics

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 S.F out to Old Brit

New York to L.A

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, die to play

Every day and place

Leave a path of metal across

A 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 a one for all all for one force

Knocked rock 'n' roll on it's ass

And put metal on the course



Thrash, thrash, thrash, thrash



Back in the day

If you weren't there

It doesn't matter

'Cause 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



Ah ah oh oh oh



Hints of thunder, seeds of lightning

The power hits the stage

The music was exciting

The mania raged



Ah ah oh oh oh



We all had a fever

Our ears started to ring

Feeding this wildfire

Consuming everything



Ah ah oh oh oh



Metal's king back then

And still is to this day

Others imitate or challenge

But it never goes away



Ah ah oh oh ohh
