Intro:

Never jealous 'cause once we're gone

Never leave here til it's done
Be really the greatest of all
Do it well but not enough


Chorus:


Oh oh oh, mama we made it, aye
Oh oh oh, we're finally the greatest of the world
Oh oh oh, I told you we'd make it

Oh oh oh, we're finally the greatest of the world

Verse 1:


Knock knock ? who's there?
The one, remember me?

I'm lookin kinda different these days, don't you agree?
Your boy's going big these days, didn't even see?
The hell with the devil, there's no sympathy

The wishes in my past are still ridin me
All I can do is laugh as they lie to me
You can't take my God from inside of me

Crosses up, light up the sky with me
I got a lot of crazy crazy on my mind
Like what's the real reason that the pope resigned?

I got Van Halen, I don't need a bassline
I knew we can do it, it was just a matter of time
Put the axels back on the street and break on the vine

I came back to take back everything that was mine
If I live to be 1-0-9 I'm still in my prime
If I don't then I don't, I'll live on in your mind


Chorus:


Oh oh oh, mama we made it, aye
Oh oh oh, we're finally the greatest of the world
Oh oh oh, I told you we'd make it

Oh oh oh, we're finally the greatest of the world

Verse 2:


I'm on a hacksaw tour, Eddie got a Frankenstein aimed at your door
Speakers under the stage, lift you off of the floor

Why? This music is the end to the war
We endure, cameras everywhere, everyone is keeping score
Everybody talkin bout what's up bout the tour

The world is a steak, I'm a chew it up raw
We're back in heavy metal like we above the law
London, Japan, Germany and France

Lisbon to New York, we're live up in Netherlands
Jump up on some shoulders baby, you never dance
You only live once, come on, here's your chance

You could be reborn, half star, half man
If you rise up and grab my hand
If I live to be 1-0-9 I'm still in my prime

If I don't then I don't, I'll live on in your mind

Chorus:


Oh oh oh, mama we made it, aye
Oh oh oh, we're finally the greatest of the world

Oh oh oh, I told you we'd make it
Oh oh oh, we're finally the greatest of the world


Bridge:

Eddie Van Halen

We are the greatest
Rise up!


Chorus:

Oh oh oh, mama we made it, aye

Oh oh oh, we're finally the greatest of the world
Oh oh oh, I told you we'd make it
Oh oh oh, we're finally the greatest of the world
