Saxon - Never Surrender Lyrics






I was born on the back streets
On the rotten side of town
I never had me nothin'
Just people puttin' me down
Living on the dark side
Across the railroad track
Leaving wasn't easy
But I'm never going back

Never surrender
When you're up against the world
Never surrender
Stand up fight them all
Never surrender
When you're up against the world
Never surrender
Stand up fight them all

I'm sticking in the fast lane
I never wanna quit
I'm taking all my chances
I'm gonna take 'em quick
I started at the bottom
But I'm headed to the top
Ain't nobody gonna hold me back
'Cause I'm never gonna stop

Never surrender
When you're up against the world
Never surrender
Stand up fight them all

Never surrender
When you're up against the world
Never surrender
Stand up fight them all

I was born on the back streets
On the rotten side of town
I never had me nothin'
Just people puttin' me down
I'm living on the darkside
Across the railroad track
Leaving wasn't easy
But I'm never going back

Never surrender
When you're up against the world
Never surrender
Stand up fight them all

[Repeat to end]

    I was born on the back streets
    On the rotten side of town
    I never had me nothin'
    Just people puttin' me down
    Living on the dark side
    Across the railroad track
    Leaving wasn't easy
    But I'm never going back
    Never surrender
    When you're up against the world
    Never surrender
    Stand up fight them all
    Never surrender
    When you're up against the world
    Never surrender
    Stand up fight them all
    I'm sticking in the fast lane
    I never wanna quit
    I'm taking all my chances
    I'm gonna take 'em quick
    I started at the bottom
    But I'm headed to the top
    Ain't nobody gonna hold me back
    'Cause I'm never gonna stop
    Never surrender
    When you're up against the world
    Never surrender
    Stand up fight them all
    Never surrender
    When you're up against the world
    Never surrender
    Stand up fight them all
    I was born on the back streets
    On the rotten side of town
    I never had me nothin'
    Just people puttin' me down
    I'm living on the darkside
    Across the railroad track
    Leaving wasn't easy
    But I'm never going back
    Never surrender
    When you're up against the world
    Never surrender
    Stand up fight them all

    I know that but all I am saying is that they are not Nazis.

  59. D.... S....

    Dude, yesterday I saw them!!!!! They were fucking amazing! :DDDDDDDD

  60. K.... ....

    Swords and Tequila, of Riot and Curse Of Pharaons, of Mercyful Fate have that sound too. And the first one was released 1 year before than 2 Minutes To Midnight.

  61. F.... Y....

    they are not underrated i think, they are really good also (:

  62. E.... O....

    GOT THIS ON VINYL ! FUCK YEAH STAY METAL ALL OF YOU !

  63. S.... V....

    it more so depends on which song he heard first. even if a song came out first, if you hear the newer song, the older song will remind you of it

  64. S.... V....

    a lot of the people who join the army do it as a way to survive because in todays world the economy is so screwed up that a military career is the only alternative to being homeless. the military is mostly made of people who's families have been in he military and people with no other real alternative.

  65. S.... S....

    Why?The soldiers accepting them is the only reason they can give the orders.

  66. B.... P....

    Actually, there are more than 100 songs with this riff

  67. c.... t....

    u mean 2 minutes to midnight reminds you of this ( it was made much later, that's why i'm telling you this :P ) , nice songs btw

  68. H.... ....

    Actually, they were a homage, not a rip-off

  69. S.... ....

    abso fucking lutely!

  70. i.... 6....

    and 3 more

  71. E.... ....

    This sounds like one of the songs from the original Doom game

    E.... ....

    never played that game, but this song reminds me of hokuto no ken song "tough boy"

  72. m.... ....

    bow you know where maiden stole it as saxon wrote this 3 years before maiden did 2 mins. not the first time theyve stole from saxon and from priest, thats just plain cheating and being lazy.

  73. S.... V....

    my only problem with most modern music is that it's too focused on sex and hate. i like my music to be about uniting and honor.

  74. S.... V....

    it'not his choice to make. he is/was a soldier. he was given orders. don't get pissy at the soldiers, get pissy t those who givethe soldiers their orders.

  75. g.... ....

    why didnt you take your kind with you, when you left ? no one wants you in Germany!

  76. D.... ....

    most peopl think that because it makes it easier to like old music and critque on new music but in actuall fact there are some new amazing riff styles and ideas unfortunalty for fans of old music or closed minded ones these ideas are in metalcore ya just need to open you mind

  77. L.... L....

    And why should I care about this?

  78. D.... ....

    No harm done!

  79. D.... ....

    Vanexa's song was on a demotape, which they gave to Saxon when they were touring Italy. And this was a year or so before Denim And Leather came out. I love Saxon, but in this case they just stole the riff. Not sure if it was intentional, maybe not. Maybe they just listened to the demo and it stuck with them. Anyway, Vanexa's song came first.

  80. D.... ....

    @michaels2boys STFU i'm french ;)

  81. o.... ....

    You know what's kinda funny. With all the mainstream music in the world, how do people still discover these bands xD. Anywhore, this song is just amazing!
