Judas Priest - Night Crawler lyrics

Howling winds keep screaming around
And the rain comes pouring down
Doors are locked and bolted now
As the thing crawls into town

Straight out of Hell one of a kind
Stalking his victim don't look behind you

Night crawler beware the beast in black
Night crawler you know he's coming back
Night crawler

Sanctuary is being sought
Whispered prayers our last resort
Homing in it's cry distorts
Terror struck they know they're caught

Straight out of Hell one of a kind
Stalking his victim don't look behind you

Night crawler beware the beast in black
Night crawler you know he's coming back
Night crawler

As night is falling the end is drawing near
They'll hear
Their last rites echo on the wind

Huddled in the cellar
Fear caught in their eyes
Daring not to move or breathe
As the creature cries
Fingernails start scratching
On the outside wall clawing at the windows
"Come to me" it calls atmosphere's electric
As it now descends the stairs
Hiding in the darkness
Is so futile from it's glare
Death comes in an instant
As they hoped it would
Souls ascend to heaven
While it feasts on flesh and blood

Straight out of Hell one of a kind
Stalking his victim don't look behind you

Night crawler beware the beast in black
Night crawler you know he's coming back
Night crawler

He's going to get you he's going to get you
Beware of the beast night crawler
Beware of the beast he's going to get you
Night crawler straight out of hell
Beware of the beast he's going to get you
