There's a scream in the night

And death on the wind

And a heartbeat that's pounding like rain

There's a flash in the sky

A cry of a hound

As if someone is wailing the dead



And the nightmare begins as the Devil rides out

From the heat through the gates of Hell

And there's no escape from the curse of the damned

Oh You better beware



Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?

Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?



Better lock up your doors

And get off the streets

If you fear for the reaper of souls

For they say when he rides he never returns

Till he's paid back the debt that he's owed



So beware of the night

As the darkness descends the terror's about to unfold

And pray that your life will be spared of the fate

Oh



Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?

Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?



And the nightmare begins as the Devil rides out

From the heat through the gates of Hell

And there's no escape from the curse of the damned

Oh You better beware



Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?

Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?



Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?

Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?



Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?

Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?



Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?

Don't you know it's the night of the demon

When spirits run high?
