Metallica - 04 - Motobreath (Bootleg)

Here is the fourth track of the Cliff's First Show bootleg by California based thrash metal legends Metallica. The song is called Motorbreath. As the name implies, this was the very first show in which they replaced original bassist Ron McGovney with Cliff Burton, previously of Trauma. This means that this was during the rather brief period of time before the first album where both Cliff Burton and Dave Mustaine were in the band. This is a good live show.

Line up:

James Hetfield - Guitar and vocals
Dave Mustaine - Guitar
Cliff Burton - Bass
Lars Ulrich - Drums

Lyrics:

Living and dying laughing and crying
Once you have seen it you will never be the same
Life in the fast lane is just how it seems
Hard and it is heavy and dirty and mean
Motorbreath
It's how I live my life
I can't
Take it
Any other way
Motorbreath
The sign of living fast
It is
Going to
Take your breath away
Don't stop for nothing it's full speed or nothing
I am taking down you know whatever is in my way
Getting your kicks as you are shooting the line
Sending the shivers up and down my spine
Motorbreath
It's how I live my life
I can't
Take it
Any other way
Motorbreath
The sign of living fast
It is
Going to
Take your breath away
Those people who tell you not to take chances
They are all missing on what life is about
You only live once so take hold of the chance
Don't end up like others the same song and dance
Motorbreath
It's how I live my life
I can't
Take it
Any other way
Motorbreath
The sign of living fast
It is
Going to
Take your breath away
