Judas Priest - Death Row Lyrics

Artist: Judas Priest

Album: Jugulator

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Kenneth Downing, Glenn Tipton

Let me out!
Sorry son
You committed a crime
Pay the price

Death row
What's that, 'No stay'?
Oh, okay I'll tell him
Dead man walking

We've all been detained for the crimes we've committed
And they stayed execution, but we'll never get acquitted
Waiting for the day when they strap us in
When they pull the lever, hear the goddamn screams, oh no!

Shake with fear
Electric chair

We're all inside, homicide related
They'll show no mercy and we don't anticipate it
We move a little closer everyday 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
And 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
