A very good song from Bruce Dickinson's first solo 
album, in cooperation with Iron Maiden guitarist Janick 
Gers.

Lyrics:

"On and on...

Born in a mining town in '58,
When black and white TV was up to date,
And men were still around
Who fought for freedom, stood their ground
And died

That I could be alive and see,
The damage that we've managed since.
In this septred isle - is nothing sacred,
Just a one square mile.

Chorus:
Justice and liberty,
You can buy, but you don't get it free,
In a world of steel and glass, we bury our past.

Bridge:
On and on, we slept till dawn,
When we awoke, we hardly spoke.

Verse:
My grandfather taught me how to fight,
Old fashioned stuff like wrong and right,
But all around... I see his morals
Buried in a mess of money troubles.

Born in a mining town in '58,
When black and white TV was up to date,
And men were still around
Who fought for freedom, stood their ground
And died

Chorus

Bridge:
On and on, we slept till dawn,
On and on and on...

Chorus x2

On and on, we slept till dawn,
When we awoke, it was
all the same
