Hanging Judge Songtext
von Sodom

This is the hour of the savage guns
Beyond the pale and beyond the sun
Ganged up with Jesse by the mating call of gold
Side by side, fighting, not changing the course

The code of law in the hand of the one
Who drags you to the hanging tree
Bloodhounds in the hands of those
Who will have to bleed

Hanging judge – He is the law
Hanging judge – You are in his claws
Hanging judge – The trapdoor will fall
Hanging judge

Bullets for breakfast and dust to breathe
To be on the point, to strike down all the wimps
Killing the riders of the whistling pine
By each war drum beat someone will die


The code of law in the hand of the one
Who drags you to the hanging tree
Bloodhounds in the hands of those
Who will have to bleed

Hanging judge – He is the law
Hanging judge – You are in his claws
Hanging judge – The trapdoor will fall
Hanging judge

Hanging judge – He is the law
Hanging judge – You are in his claws
Hanging judge – The trapdoor will fall
Hanging judge

The wild bunch riding wings of hawks
Red painted deserts where you broke the law
Your facedown life ain′t so much of a pity
Against the fools and against the glory

The code of law in the hand of the one
Who drags you to the hanging tree
Bloodhounds in the hands of those
Who will have to bleed


Hanging judge – He is the law
Hanging judge – You are in his claws
Hanging judge – The trapdoor will fall
Hanging judge

Hanging judge – He is the law
Hanging judge – You are in his claws
Hanging judge – The trapdoor will fall
