When I Rive / Ray Smith
Is anybody gonna be there when rive
Is anybody gonna be there when I rive
If anybodies gonna be there he'll be
lookin up at me with an angry stare
-CH-
Is anybody gonna be there when I rive
Now I've been told that I should go to hell
a couple of girls said I would burn very well
I don't mind goin to hell with all my friends there
it could be pretty swell

solo
What would happen if I went the other way
Oh lord if I went the other way
If I went the other way the gates would be locked
there'd be nothin I could say
