Rainbow - Man On The Silver Mountain Lyrics






I'm a wheel, I'm a wheel
I can roll, I can feel
And you can't stop me turning

Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun
I can move, I can run
But you'll never stop me burning

Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again

I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain

I'm the day, I'm the day
I can show you the way
And look, I'm right beside you

I'm the night, I'm the night
I'm the dark and the light
With eyes that see inside you

Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again

I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain

Come down with fire
And lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again

Well, I can help you, you know I can

I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain

Just look at me and listen
I'm the man, the man, give you my hand
I'm the man on the silver mountain

Come down with fire
And lift your spirit higher
I'm the man on the mountain
The man on the silver mountain
I'm the night, the light
The black and the white
The man on the silver mountain

  19. T.... o....

    They used to play this all the time on Z-Rock back in New Mexico. I never knew the name of the band until now.

  30. A.... S....

    Devil's De-Light...💫

  31. d.... A....

    I’m so satisfied to have lived my life in the the times of real talent and full soul of artistry....nothing since has touched these young men of musicianry and may never again. The clowns since couldn’t hold a pinky of talent to these guys originality.

  32. D.... P....

    Ritchie Blackmore is never mentioned in the greatest guitarist conversations...unless guitar players are making the list. Dude is a Goddamn God.

  35. B.... H....

    dio is THE MAN ON THE SILVER MOUNTAIN

  36. E.... K....

    İsmail YK brought me here

  37. G.... A....

    this song beginning is like Zz top tush

  38. [.... M....

    Is it me or did this song somehow inspired dream evil by any chance?

  39. K.... ....

    Hate to ask but why would this song be the single (saw this on wiki) when Temple of the King has 30 million views compared to this 15. I’ve known Temple of the King since I was like 8 years old from my parents playing the radio so I have a bond with that song, only more recently I started listen to more of Dio era Rainbow’s work

    K.... ....

    I can't answer that for you bud, but this song used to get a lot of radio play in the 70's on FM radio when I was a teenager. Also, when I would watch the San Antonio Spurs play on ESPN or whatever, they would play Man On A Silver Mountain in AT&T Stadium when Tim Duncan had the ball, even as recent as his last year...for what its worth.

    K.... ....

    Degree Zero Art Studio thanks for your reply. I actually grew up in the Philippines and was thinking maybe countries like to pick different songs to be on the radio. Filipinos love soft rock and ballads so maybe that’s why Temple of the King played often, or maybe this could have came on but it wasn’t very catchy to me as a kid

  40. k.... c....

    Esperando o natal chegar ouvindo essa bela música !

  41. T.... R....

    I’m so thankful to have grown up on classic rock and metal!

    T.... R....

    True That!!!!!

  42. c.... ....

    Imagine if Ian Gillan did it...

  43. D.... R....

    JESUS CHRIST IS KING YOU DEVIL WORSHIPPING BASTARDS!!!

    D.... R....

    Fuck Jesus Christ, Hail Lucifer.

  44. P.... S....

    What a voice ??? Rest in peace Ronnie.

  45. M.... Z....

    Fucking Dio man. I'm 49 years old... Nothing could bring you up like Dio and Dickinson.

  46. R.... C....

    This is a beautiful song.

  47. D.... B....

    Whether they knew it or not, Rainbow's song, "The Man on the Silver Mountain", is about Jesus, especially Jesus' return. When Jesus returns, He will stand on the Mount of Olives, and He will come down with fire. Olive trees have silver leaves, so the "silver mountain" is an unintended (or intended) reference to the Mount of Olives.

    D.... B....

    Interesting. Is "Temple of the King" also about Jesus? I'm curious to hear your interpretation of that one, too.

    D.... B....

    @Todd Edwards Never heard of the song before. I'll try to check up on it.

  48. w.... ....

    Fucking love this song

  49. A.... H....

    Girls and guys, I know a song from a Hungarian band that sounds too much like this beginning riff. Do you think the Hungarian band stole this or is this a co-incidence?

  50. D.... S....

    I'm the man on the silver mountain

  51. H.... Y....

    Dio makes any song, any band AWESOME with his epic vocals and of course, thanks to the Great Ritchie Blackmore! 🎸🎸🎸

  52. L.... ....

    Graham Bonnet sings this better, fight me!

  53. W.... S....

    Who TF is Ritchie Blackmore

  54. T.... Z....

    Апвоут?

  55. j.... ....

    Love this!

  56. M.... P....

    Don't forget Cozy beating the drums like they stole something.

  57. M.... P....

    RJP Ronnie James Dio 5'4" of pure dynamite

  58. T.... ....

    (resuggested lyrics) We looked to sky for the star that did shine brightly, we learned to not to take it so lightly, sitting here in the firelight, we want to draw up the land up and lavish it with our silver and gold, but the rivers of old they ran dry stole all whom where proud to defend, the vultures that wait for the demise of our fellow country, now we fight without right to all that we brought and tried to secure, its a story without the glory that we wished to gain and uphold, when the fortresses we had where locked down tight, who will emerge to bring in the light.

  59. X.... R....

    Left dazed and confused in awe with drool mouth wide ajar then I woke up and uncrossed my shutters 😜

  60. R.... ....

  71. I.... D....

    This tune sounds epic on a 1000 watt house system with screaming tweeters and roaring mid-range.

  72. C.... K....

    I saw Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow in late 1978. It was the Long Live Rock And Roll tour. Roger Glover had JUST joined the band. Ritchie Blackmore was outrageous on guitar. However, THAT VOICE. I swear Ronnie James Dio sounded almost operatic! His vocals sent shivers up and down my spine. There's been NOBODY before or since who can compare. He truly WAS The Man On The Silver Mountain. RIP.

  73. m.... h....

  85. C.... M....

    An Epic song , Blackmore , Page & Iommi top 3 Riff monsters of all time

  86. k.... w....

    Blackmore is way underated -He is one of the finest ever!

    k.... w....

    Like Jimmy Page for low budget...a good deal! No, he's awesome makes it look so easy! He looks like Page to me when he is so into the sound---and he has the "light touch wizard fingers" right before he jams his strat into a amplifier that catches fire. I was lucky to see them in early 80's. cheers.

  87. N.... O....

    Just Perfect just classic just rocknroll

  88. T.... O....

    Rock on in heaven
