The 40th anniversary of AC/DC’s classic Highway To Hell is creeping up in a few days (July 27, for the faithful). In light of this special anniversary, the band has released rare video footage from their Plug Me In DVD box on their YouTube channel. If you were never able to get the DVD, you can now watch AC/DC performing Highway To Hell at the Dutch TV show Countdown from July 13, 1979.
The official online debut of the 1979 live footage follows AC/DC's return to social media this past week for the first time in two years amid speculation that the outfit are preparing to announce plans for a world tour that may include the return of Johnson, retired bassist Cliff Williams and drummer Phil Rudd to the lineup.
Lyrics
Living easy, living free
Season ticket on a one-way ride
Asking nothing, leave me be
Taking everything in my stride
Don't need reason, don't need rhyme
Ain't nothing I would rather do
Going down, party time
My friends are gonna be there too
I'm on the highway to hell
On the highway to hell
Highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell
No stop signs, speed limit
Nobody's gonna slow me down
Like a wheel, gonna spin it
Nobody's gonna mess me around
Hey Satan, paid my dues
Playing in a rocking band
Hey mama, look at me
I'm on my way to the promised land, whoo!
I'm on the highway to hell
Highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell
Highway to hell
Don't stop me
I'm on the highway to hell
On the highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell
On the highway
Yeah, highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell
Highway to hell
Highway to hell
And I'm going down All the way Whoa! I'm on the highway to hell
