Blackman Hippy,
Screwed Up Eyes And A Loaded Gun
Blackman Hippy,
Jamming Hard When He Sings His Song Yeah
Blackman Hippy,
Just A Big Guitar And A World To Be Won
Then He'll Crush You, With His Voodoo Yeah
Set The World On Fire,
He Was Playing Guitar When He Took It Too Far
Let Him Take You Higher,
Like A Loaded Gun He Was On The Run
Set The World On Fire,
He Was Playing Guitar When He Took It Too Far
Let Him Take You Higher,
Come And Grace The New Messiah
Blackman Hippy,
On A Lonely Road, That Would Cost His Life
Blackman Hippy,
Could He Know His God Was As Cold As Ice
Blackman Hippy,
He Was Given A Gift, But He Would Pay The Price.
Blackman Hippy,
Just A Big Guitar And A World To Be Won
Then He'll Crush You, With His Voodoo Yeah
Set The World On Fire,
He Was Playing Guitar When He Took It Too Far
Let Him Take You Higher,
Like A Loaded Gun He Was On The Run
Set The World On Fire,
He Was Playing Guitar When He Took It Too Far
Let Him Take You Higher,
Come And Grace The New Messiah
No It Ain't Funny,
In A Crazy World Were Your Life Can Be Taken Away
Ooh
Oh Now He's On The Run,
Oh Like A Loaded Gun, Set The World On Fire
Got To Live You Fantasy,
Let Your Feeling Be True
Now That Rock And Roll Had Killed The Man,
We Had To Break Up The Band
Set The World On Fire,
He Was Playing Guitar When He Took It Too Far
Let Him Take You Higher,
Like A Loaded Gun He Was On The Run
Set The World On Fire,
He Was Playing Guitar When He Took It Too Far
Let Him Take You Higher,
Come And Grace The New Messiah
