Hell Patrol – English Lyrics

• By: Judas Priest

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Like wild fire

Comes roaring

Mad whirlwind

Burning the road

Black thunder

White lightning

Speed demons cry

The Hell Patrol

...

The Hell Patrol

...

Night riders

Death dealers

Storm bringers

Tear up the ground

Fists flying

Eyes blazing

They're glory-bound

The Hell Patrol

...

The Hell Patrol

...

Brutalise you

Neutralise you

Gonna go for your throat as you choke

Then they'll vaporapeize you

Terrorise you

Pulverise you

Gonna cut to the bone as you groan

And they'll paratamise you

Lead: Glenn

...

Lead: K.K.

...

Chrome Monsters

Steel Warriors

Soul Stealers

Ripping out hearts

They're Devil Dogs

The Hell Patrol

The Hell Patrol

...
