JUDAS PRIEST - Death Row lyrics

rate me

Let me out

Sorry son

Commit a crime - pay the price

Death row - What's that - 'No stay?'

Oh! Ok I'll tell him

Dead man walking

We've all been detained

For the crimes we've committed

They stayed execution

But we'll never get acquitted

Waiting for the day when they strap us in

And when they pull the lever

Hear the goddamn screams

Shake with fear

Electric chair

We're all inside

Homocide related

They'll show no mercy

And we don't anticipate it

We move a little closer

Every day to meet our maker

They cover up our face

And then they close the circuit breaker

Oh! No!

Shake with fear

Your time draws near

Oh! No! - I won't go

You'll never get me down to

Death row

Oh come on man

Give me a break

I made one mistake, that's all it takes

I ain't that bad

I ain't done nothing wrong

Shake with fear

The end is near

Oh! No! - I won't go

You'll never get me down to

Death row

Oh! No! - They're taking me slow

One way ticket to

Death row

So what's the matter son

Too young to die

Take it like a man

Don't cry

Ha! Ha! Ha!

Oh! No! - I won't go

You'll never get me down to

Death row

Say a prayer, best beware

It's not very nice in the electric chair

Oh! No! - I won't go

You'll never get me down to

Death row

Oh! No! - They're taking me slow

One way ticket to

Death row
