Lyrics: 
Hell's Bells (Young, Young, Johnson) 

I'm a rolling thunder, a pouring rain 
I'm comin' on like a hurricane 
My lightning's flashing across the sky 
You're only young but you're gonna die 

I won't take no prisoners, won't spare no lives 
Nobody's putting up a fight 
I got my bell, I'm gonna take you to hell 
I'm gonna get you, Satan get you 

CHORUS: 
Hell's Bells 
Yeah, Hell's Bells 
You got me ringing Hell's Bells 
My temperature's high, Hell's Bells 

I'll give you black sensations up and down your spine 
If you're into evil you're a friend of mine 
See my white light flashing as I split the night 
'Cause if good's on the left, then I'm stickin' to the right 

I won't take no prisoners, won't spare no lives 
Nobody's puttin' up a fight 
I got my bell, I'm gonna take you to hell 
I'm gonna get you, Satan get you 

CHORUS
