Jack Fights Back (Lyrics & Music: Tim Hunter) Jack fights back, Jack fights back I’ve got an inner light that shines the way, that lets me fight another day That turns my night into day Jack fights back I won’t give in to adversity Jack fights back Won’t let it disadvantage me Jack fights back, Jack fights back Wine , Women and song is what keeps me strong; Wine, Women and song is what keeps me going on. Join me on the road, Join me my friend Join me till the end when I see the light again Jack fights back, Jack fights back Jack fights back I won’t give in to adversity Jack fights back Won’t let it disadvantage me Won’t you join me on the road Join me to the end When I’ll see the light again Won’t you join me on the road my friend Join me on the Road

Constantine 02:59
Constantine (Music and Lyrics Tim Hunter © 2020) There were so many things That he needed to fix When he became the emperor In York in AD 306 He was losing control And wanted solutions Like an end to persecutions And a brand new state religion Constantine He Defined The Bible that we all now read And the Nicean Creed The church was divided Needing unity He settled the date of Easter He defined Christianity He favoured the Christians He changed history Founded Constantinople Creating a new great city Constantine He Defined The Bible that we all now read And the Nicean Creed

(Lyrics and music: Tim Hunter) People say you’re too old Too old to Rock and Roll I say no – that ain’t so If music is in your soul People say you shouldn’t play That guitar anymore I say no – that ain’t so I’m gonna play for sure, because You’re only as old as you feel Just keep on an even keel You’ll be only as old as you feel You’re only as old as you feel You’re only as old as you feel It ain’t over till it’s over, my friend It ain’t over till it’s over, my friend And we ain’t reached the end (solo) You’re only as old as you feel Just keep on an even keel You’ll be only as old as you feel You’re only as old as you feel You’re only as old as you feel People say why do you play Play those old records? I say the modern world Will only leave you bored Give me the Golden Age Of Rock and Riffs and Songs Give me a melody Then you can’t go wrong You’re only as old as you feel Just keep on an even keel You’ll be only as old as you feel You’re only as old as you feel Just keep on an even keel You’ll be only as old as you feel You’re only as old as you feel Just keep on an even keel You’re only as old as you feel You’re only as old as you feel

New Horizon (Tim Hunter: lyrics and music) From the ashes of this Burnt Out Crazy life Spread your wings and fly into the misty night New Horizon, New Tomorrow, as the sun sets forget the sorrow Watch the sun go down then you’re free at last Take a journey through the past New Horizon, New Horizon A broken mind that only time is gonna mend From the ruins of a life close to the end New Horizon, New Tomorrow, as the sun sets forget the sorrow Watch the sun go down then you’re free at last Take a journey through the past New Horizon, New Horizon Standing at the crossroads can’t decide which way to go You can’t turn back that’s the only thing you know

One World, One Life (Lyrics and Music: Tim Hunter © 2018) We’ve Only Got One World What goes wrong we’ll try to mend We’ve Only Got One Life When it’s gone it’s gone, my friend Don’t neglect the countryside We must respect all the wildlife What is left we’ve got to save, the landscape’s being paved When it’s gone it’s gone - for future generations We’ve Only Got One World What goes wrong we’ll try to mend We’ve Only Got One Life When it’s gone it’s gone, my friend Let’s preserve just a little space Don’t we all deserve some solace? Preserve tranquillity and quality of life When it’s gone it’s gone - for future generations Greenbelt goes under their wheels Ask yourself, how would do you feel If there was only concrete and steel? One World, One Life One World, One Life One World, One Life One World, One Life We’ve Only Got One World What goes wrong we’ll try to mend We’ve Only Got One Life When it’s gone it’s gone, my friend
