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

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

Celestial Risotto
(Lyrics and Music: Tim Hunter)
Is there anyone there? Who are you, where are you?
My name is Otto and I live in the Silver Grotto, everyday I play The Cosmic Lotto
And if I win I’ll dine on Celestial Wine
And Celestial Risotto Oh Oh
And Celestial Risotto
You seem very happy—let us dine!
My name is Otto and I’m feeling rather Blotto, ‘cos my numbers came up on The Cosmic Lotto
And now I’ve won
I’ll dine on Celestial Wine
And Celestial Risotto Oh Oh
And Celestial Risotto
Ce vin est très bon!
I’ll win again
I’ll dine on Celestial Wine
And Celestial Risotto Oh Oh
And Celestial Risotto
Who are you? Is there anyone there?

Burnt Out Life

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

It's No Surprise (Music and Lyrics: Tim Hunter)
It's No Surprise
That we got nowhere
'cos we were too square
It's No Surprise
That's where we went wrong
we were still writing songs
where does the answer lie?
where does the answer lie?
Never Stood a chance
'cos we just can't dance

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

Going To The Great Beyond
Hoping that it won’t be long
This could be my final song
Going To The Great Beyond
This is a trip to the other side
A ticket for a one way ride
What you waiting for
Please step onboard
Going To The Great Beyond
Hoping that it won’t be long
This could be my final song
Going To The Great Beyond
You know we’ve still got room for more
Come on won’t you join the tour
What you’re going to see
Will be a mystery
Everything you believed in
Will soon be blown to the wind
Come on ride the bus
To the terminus
The Great Beyond, The Great Beyond
The Great Beyond, The Great Beyond
Going To The Great Beyond
Hoping that it won’t be long
This could be my final song
Going To The Great Beyond

On My Way Back To Knaresborough
(Lyrics & Music: Tim Hunter)
Jacobite Officer: I think we’ve caught an English spy! In the name of the Jacobite Army I arrest you. You’ll be Court Martialled in the morning.
Jacobean Officer: State your name, rank and intention
Jack: My name is John Metcalf. I’m not a soldier, sir. I have no weapon, just my violin. I’m here to offer my musical services to you.
Jacobean Officer: Hah! Play us your Violin then, Metcalf!
[Jack plays some violin]
Jacobean Officer: Good! You’re free to gang, you’re nae threat to us
Close call, now I know why they built Hadrian’s Wall
Close shave, I was captured I had to be brave
But the Lord he saved me, he made sure I went free
Now I’m on my way, yes I’m on my way,
On my way back to Knaresborough
Out of jail, somehow I lived to tell the tale
Scot free, I managed to restore my dignity
But, the Lord he saved me, he made sure I went free
Now I’m on my way, yes I’m on my way, back to Knaresborough
On my way back to Knaresborough
On my way back to Knaresborough
Take us home Jack!
On my way back to Knaresborough
