This intense rock anthem by AC/DC delves into themes of narrow escapes and the relentless pressure of external threats. The lyrics vividly depict various situations where the narrator faces imminent danger but manages to evade disaster just in time. From dodging a bull and escaping a lynch mob to bailing out of a doomed plane, each verse heightens the urgency and the desperate need for momentary salvations. The chorus underscores a feeling of living on the edge, where timely interventions save the protagonist from catastrophe. The recurring notion of being "saved in the nick of time" speaks to the universal human experience of evading crises at the last possible moment, reinforcing the thin line between peril and safety. #Survival #Adrenaline #CloseCalls
Nick of Time
Lyrics
Wrong track, wrong line
First train to run on time
Bad blood, bad news
Long rope, got nothing to lose
Mad bull seeing red
Coming at me, happy when I'm dead
Jump a fence, get away
Ain't got a liking for the
Games he plays
What you gonna do?
Everybody trying to find you guilty
Make you want to tow the line
Saved by, saved in the nick of time
I was saved in the nick of time
Slow plane, hard rain
Cold sweat and I feel the strain
Look down, no ground
Black sky, just the engine sound
Bail out, goodbye
Take my chances, I don't
Want to die
Count ten, just pray
The nick of time can save me any day
What you gonna do?
Everybody love a hero, honey
Living on a danger line
Saved by, saved in the nick of time
I was saved in the nick of time
Lose sleep, get grief
Some day get no relief
Quick punch, closed eye
You didn't knew it and you
Wonder why
Lynch mob on your tail
Think they were searching
For the holy grail
Leave town, get away
I didn't figure on them anyway
No I didn't today
Everybody trying to find you guilty
Make you want to tow the line
Saved by, saved in the nick of time
I was saved in the nick of time
