"Hammersmith" lyrics

Across the channel to make new friends
The Krauts are coming to take their chance
In Wardour Street, we'll rise or fall
The sweat is dripping from the walls
Way up north the Lakeland Lounge
A funky place with a rockin' crowd
What's up, Lemmy? The tension grows
Who's playing last, we don't know

Show me the way, show me the way
To Hammersmith
We'll make it there against the odds
Against the odds

Live on the air couldn't understand
A single word - what do you say?
At the Apollo, the stage so high
The Rose of Scotland saved the night
At the shores of the Mersey Beat
Stopping by in Matthew Street
The good old Cavern's a parking lot
But the Germans wanna rock

Show me the way, show me the way
To Hammersmith
Where I'm gonna ring the bell, ring the bell
Show me the way, show me the way
To Hammersmith
Shine in heaven, burn in hell, burn in hell

Jump on the ferry
Have some fish and chips
Licking my stiff upper lips, yeah
The white cliffs of Dover call
And my stomach might revolt
Feels like the ferry's sinking
But the Krauts are here to rock

Show me the way, show me the way
To Hammersmith
We'll make it there against the odds
Against the odds
Show me the way, show me the way
To Hammersmith
To rock the temple of the Gods
Let's rock the Gods!

Show me the way, show me the way
To Hammersmith
