I took a ride with a one-way ticket
I aimed my arrow at the mark & hit it
We all need to be somebody
Been broken down, but not defeated
I kept on punching back till i succeeded
We all need to be somebody, now
We stop at nothing, even climb barbed-wire
We struck a match & set the world on fire
& if we tried, we couldn't get much higher, now
Everyone around the NATION, raise your glasses, raise your glasses
Standing pround cause we're the champions, raise your glasses, raise your
glasses
We pushed it all, beyond the limit
We took our chances & we jumped right in it
Now i believe, in strength in numbers
Went into battle with a force of thunder
We all need to be somebody, now
I wanna shout it out with all my power
I wanna scream it from the highest tower
I want to celebrate our finest hour, now
Everyone around the NATION, raise your glasses, raise your glasses
Standing pround cause we're the champions, raise your glasses, raise your
glasses
We stop at nothing, even climb barbed-wire
We struck a match & set the world on fire
& if we tried, we couldn't get much higher, now
Oh, you gotta give it your all
Oh, you gotta know what you're after
And oh, we'll make it over the wall together
[Solo]
I took a ride with a one way ticket
I shot my arrow at the mark & hit it
When all the others only talked, i did it
Kept pushing everything beyond the limit
You play the game, you gotta play to win it

Wisdom is like the wind, it can come from any direction, it drives windmills, sails, it can knock down houses, but it also removes dead limbs and promotes growth. Todays wisdom serves today.

The late great Sandy Denny of Fairport Convention singing along, the only guest vocalist Zep ever used. Typo on verse 4: should be "Down in the valley below"

Planting of the forests? The forests were there even before the stars no?

@ericgust82 lol, yes, it is based on the early LOTR universe, in the first age; which is based on old folk tales, genius. Did you think Tolkien just pulled all that stuff out of his own ass? No, he got it from old European myths. If you read the Silmarillion and listen to this song you`ll hear a lot of references to the first age of Middle Earth and the planting of the forests, etc.
