Track List and Lyrics
Rising Power(3:45)
- dog day Tuesday
- hope that girl she come today
- hard life it's a city life
- sweat keep pourin' down
- I’ve got my feet up like to love
- through the dawn till I’ve blown
- all I want's her lovin' down
- love the way she move around
- need no excuse
- to let it all hang loose
- my body's blown a fuse
- rising power
- we'll raise the night
- rising power
- rising power
- we'll wake the dead
- rising power
- you've got a love life up all night
- darkest hour at the dead of night
- seen her walkin' down the street
- the kind of woman that brings on heat
- loved her dusk till dawn
- come the morning she was gone
- took me out to my surprise
- money's gone left high and dry
- need no excuse
- to let it all hang loose
- my body's blown a fuse
- rising power
- we'll raise the night
- rising power
- rising power
- we'll wake the dead
- rising power
- you'll end up torn to shreds
- don't need no excuse
- my body's blown a fuse
- rising power
- we'll raise the night
- rising power
- rising power
- we'll wake the dead
- rising power
- you'll end up torn to shreds
- rise, rise, rise
- rising power
- the power rise
