Dio - Strange Highways Lyrics






It's a crazy world we live in and I'm leaving it today for another institution we crazy people play
Every time I climb the mountain and it turned into a hill I promised me that I'd move on and I will
I I good for nothing going nowhere so they say hey someone give me blessings for they say that I have sinned
That when I crawl inside myself and ride into the wind on strange highways on strange highways
Hey you I want your number don't even wonder we do things our way here
Questions these are forbidden we got no answers believe us anyway
So here is my confession it's the only broken rule sometimes I crawl inside of me
Where I can be the fool on strange highways on strange highways oh
You can see the other side and you shall come over you can't leave the other side if you say I will
Everytime I climb the mountain and it turned into a hill well I promised me I'd disappear and now I know I will
So someone give me blessings for the times you say I've sinned
So I can crawl inside myself and ride into the wind on strange highways on strange highways
Questions they're forbidden hey you what's your number oh we've got no answers
Don't you even wonder on strange highways aaah

    Dio eternum.

  5. K.... J....

    Without a doubt the best vocalist who ever lived

  6. M.... ....

    Seen him on this tour and Jeff Pilson was the bassist.

  7. A.... C....

    The middle 8 sounds very Beatles-ish I think

  8. M.... O....

    Crank it up🌚

  9. I.... n....

    In my opinion Dio was the king of doom!

  10. K.... B....

    great stuff. very Sabbath-ish Dehumanizer era stuff. came out a year later. brilliant stuff.

  11. M.... N....

    Impresionante canción. Lo máximo

  12. 2.... S....

    DIOs heaviest album hands down

  13. C.... A....

    LETRA:
    Es un mundo loco en el que vivimos.
    Y lo dejo hoy.
    Para otra institución
    Nosotros los locos tocamos
    Cada vez que subo la montaña
    Y se convirtió en una colina.
    Me prometí que seguiría adelante
    Y lo haré.
    Yo, yo, bueno para nada
    No van a ninguna parte, eso dicen.
    Hey, alguien me da bendiciones
    Porque dicen que he pecado.
    Que cuando me arrastro dentro de mí.
    Y montar en el viento
    En extrañas carreteras
    En extrañas carreteras
    ¡Eh, tú! quiero tu número
    Ni siquiera te preguntes
    Aquí hacemos las cosas a nuestra manera.
    Preguntas
    Estos estan prohibidos
    No tenemos respuestas
    Créenos de todos modos
    Así que aquí está mi confesión,
    Es la única regla rota
    A veces me arrastro dentro de mi
    Donde puedo ser el tonto
    En extrañas carreteras
    En extrañas carreteras
    Puedes ver el otro lado.
    Y vendras
    No puedes dejar el otro lado.
    Si dices que lo hare
    Cada vez que subo la montaña
    Y se convirtió en una colina.
    Bueno me lo prometi
    Desapareceria
    Y ahora sé que lo haré.
    Entonces, alguien me da bendiciones
    Por las veces que dices he pecado.
    Así puedo arrastrarme dentro de mí
    Y montar en el viento
    En extrañas carreteras
    En extrañas carreteras
    Preguntas
    Estan prohibidos
    Hey tu, cual es tu numero
    Oh, no tenemos respuestas
    Ni siquiera te preguntas

  14. G.... ....

    Fuckin love this album.
    Oddly enough it's great to listen to driving down black highways at night.

  15. M.... W....

    The lyrics are brilliant. This , kids, is HEAVY metal. This is not fast licks and machine gun double bass drum kicks. It is thoughtful, dark, brooding, and the voice of young people in those days. Sabbath's stuff from the early days is similar.

    M.... W....

    Dare I say AMEN, Maureen!!!! I JUST said that same thing. When you hear the term 'heavy metal' you hear THIS song. It is so metal you can see the steel!

  16. o.... s....

    Bad ass stuff

  17. M.... S....

    The voice from hell

  18. T.... R....

    I think would sound cool on pieano

  19. M.... ....

    I literally wake up to this song every day. It's my ringtone, my wake up alarm, and a deeply ingrained fragment of my soul. RIP Dio. If it wasn't for you and Mike Muir I don't think I could have survived on this shit hole of a planet as long as I have.

  20. M.... C....

    Fantastic album! one of my favs!

  21. O.... b....

    My favorite dio song.

  22. B.... ....

    This was such a great era of Dio so doomy

  23. S.... ....

    My first album when i was six... Bought it from the little bit at this time. Changed my whole Life

  24. J.... H....

    Dio Strange Highways hell yea

  25. L.... ....

    Look up "bad ass" in the dictionary......this song will be listed.

  26. R.... M....

    Tony Iommi riff!!!

  27. V.... L....

    amo esse Disco

  28. M.... ....

    Been listiening to Dio since the Elf days and this album is further testament to his continuing greatness, both on Earth and throughout the Universe!

  29. T.... M....

    Every time I climbed the mountain I promised me I will

  30. B.... S....

    It's a crazy world we live in
    And I'm leaving it today
    For another institution
    We crazy people play
    Every time I climb the mountain
    And it turned into a hill
    I promised me that I'd move on
    And I will.
    I, I, good for nothing
    Going nowhere, so they say
    Hey, someone give me blessings
    For they say that I have sinned
    That when I crawl inside myself
    And ride into the wind
    On Strange Highways
    On Strange Highways
    Hey you! I want your number

    "People would say to me, why does your Holy Diver album have a cover where a monster is killing a priest? And I'd reply, how do you know it's not a priest killing a monster?" - Ronnie James Dio

    R.... D....

    And who is the actual monster?

    R.... D....

    @Maureen Wagg - The hamburglar....and the priest.

    y.... ....

    Solute to my farther dio fucking dio

    y.... ....

    keep ozzy away from this comments' section he's not even in dio's league

    y.... ....

    @planck I wish I could like this comment more times

    y.... ....

    @LadyAxe13 for real like if people brought up Bruce Dickinson or Rob Halford i would be ok, but fucking Ozzy?????? that crackhead can't get his basic pitching right, much less sing with the power and emotions that Dio could sing with, till his last show. (if you haven't watched it yet, watch Dio's last ever performance - he sounded GORGEOUS. in fact in many ways he sounded better than he sounded when he was young.)

  50. M.... R....

    Happy birthday Ronnie! RIP /m\
