You can always tell the winners

The saints and the sinners

Down at the starting line

I'm a lucid vision

Of the unforgiven

I'm your wave-tossed guy

King-size repercussions

Trouble by the dozens

The stakes have never been higher

Come back when you're younger

'cause I can feel the thunder

1-800-it's time

Oooooohhhhh yeeeaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

We came... we came... we came through blood and fire

We came... we came... we came through blood and fire

Now look at all of the people here tonight...

It's a world of fools

That's just what's expected

None of 'em know it

Or even suspect it

God must love the lazy

Shiftless and the crazy

He put so many in line

Oooooohhhhh yeeeaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

We came... we came... we came through blood and fire

We came... we came... we came through blood and fire

Now look at all of the people here tonight...

Forgotten empires

Lost victories long past

Every time I bloomed again

I thought it was the last

And then something crazy happens

And... boom!

I'm doing the victory dance!

Told ya I was comin' back...

(Told ya!)

Say you missed me...

(Say it!)

Say it like ya mean it!

You can always tell the winners

The saints and the sinners

Down at the starting line...

Oooooohhhhh yeeeaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

We came... we came... we came through blood and fire

We came... we came... we came through blood and fire

We came... we came... we came through blood and fire
