Lyrics:

We roll tonight

To the guitar bite

Stand up and be counted

For what you are about to recieve

We are the dealers

We'll give you everything you need

Hail hail to the good times

'Cause rock has got to ride away

We ain't no legend, ain't no cause

We're just living for today

For those about to rock, we salute you

We rock at dawn on the front line

Like a bolt right out of the blue

The sky's alight with the guitar bite

Heads will roll and rock tonight

For those about to rock, we salute you

We're just a battery for hire with a guitar fire

Ready and aimed at you

Pick up your balls and load up your cannon

For a twenty-one gun salute

For those about to rock - fire

We salute you

Shoot, shoot

We salute you
