Deep Purple Lyrics
 | | Once ordained the world's loudest rock band by the Guinness Book of World Records, Deep Purple started off humbly enough. Their '68 debut Shades of Deep Purple featured mostly covers and contained little to set the band above a raft of Acid Rock novelty acts that included Iron Butterfly, Quicksilver Messenger Service and the Electric Prunes. Atrociously produced, even by '60s standards, the album's one saving grace is "Hush," a song that pits Ritchie Blackmore's wrecking-ball guitar against Jon Lord's sermonizing organs, auguring great things to come. Deep Purple in Rock (1970) and Fireball (1971) document the band's evolution from generic Psychedelic rockers to Heavy Metal pioneers. The band's power peaked the following year with Machine Head, a record that split the difference between Blue Cheer and Black Sabbath. "Smoke on the Water" quickly became their theme song, but deeper cuts like "Highway Star" and "Space Truckin'" are equally impressive. These songs make you want to double the speed limit and run from the law just for the hell of it, which is what any good rock song should do. The remaining years of the decade marked a turbulent, and frankly uninteresting period for the band, but things picked up again for Deep Purple when the classic Ian Gillan/ Ritchie Blackmore/Jon Lord/Roger Glover lineup reconvened to release the radio-complaisant Perfect Strangers in 1984. Foregoing the headbanging intensity of their '70s material for a polished, more Progressive Rock sound, the record (at least) had the distinction of directing a new generation of listeners back to the band's early classics. |

Deep Purple Song Lyric:
Highway Star
Intro:
Nobody gonna take my car, I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car, it's gonna break the speed of sound
Ooh it's a killing machine it's got everything
Like a driwing power big fat tires everything
I love it and I need it I bleed it
Yeah it's a wild hurricane
Allright hold tight. I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my girl I'm gonna keep her to the end
Nobody gonna have my girl she stays close on every bend
Ooh she's a killing machine she's got everything
Like a moving mouth, body control and everything
I Love her, I need her, I seed her
Yeah she turns me on
Allright hold tight I'm a highway star
Solo:
Nobody gonna take my head I got speed inside my brain
Nobody gonna steal my head now that I'm on the road again
Ooh I'm in heaven again I'v got everything
Like a moving ground, throttle control and everything
I love it, I need it, I seed it
Eight cylinders all mine
Allright hold tight I'm a highway star
Solo:
Nobody gonna take my car....
I'm a highway star, I'm a highway star
Get This Ringtone
