We Rock Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You watch their faces
You'll see the traces of the things they want to be
But only we can see
They come for killing, they leave and still it seems
The cloud that's left behind (Oh-oh) can penetrate your mind
[Chorus]
But sail on, sing your song, carry on
'Cause we rock, we rock
We rock
[Verse 2]
We pray to someone
But when it's said and done
It's really all the same with just a different name
So many voices, all giving choices
If we listen, they will say, 'Oh we can find the way'
[Chorus]
But we'll sail on, sing a song, carry on
'Cause we rock, we rock
We rock, we rock
We rock, we rock
We rock, we rock
We rock
[Guitar Solo]
(We rock)
[Verse 1]
You watch their faces
You'll see the traces of the things they want to be
But only we can see
They come for killing, they leave and still it seems
The cloud that's left behind can penetrate your mind
[Chorus]
Sail on, sing your song, carry on
'Cause we rock, we rock
We rock, we rock
We rock, we rock
We rock, we rock
[Outro]
Ride out, stand and shout, carry on
Sail on, sing your song, carry on
'Cause we rock, we rock
See how we rock
We rock, that's rock
We rock, we rock
We rock

What did Dio say about "We Rock"?
Quickly written at Caribou Studios at 12,000 feet in the Colorado Rockies, where we spent three months recording The Last In Line (1984) LP. It took us a month just to figure out how to breathe, we were so high. It was a very spiritual place–the snow, trees, and elk running around outside our door....
