Like wild fire, comes roaring
Mad whirlwind burning the road
Black thunder, white lightning
Speed demons cry

The Hell Patrol
The Hell Patrol

Night riders, death dealers
Storm bringers tear up the ground
Fist flying, eyes blazing
They're glory bound

The Hell Patrol
The Hell Patrol

Brutalize you, neutralize you
Gonna go for your throat as you choke
Then they'll vaporize you
Terrorize you, pulverize you
Gonna cut to the bone as you groan and
Paratamize you

Chrome masters, steel warriors
Soul stealers ripping out hearts
They're Devil Dogs

The Hell Patrol
The Hell Patrol

    My Interpretation
    Seems to be the truth that Halford himself stated the Hell Patrol is all about USAF tactical fighter pilots during the first Iraqi war. The lyrics is quite a glorifiyng example of the horror that the attacking airplanes could create among the eyewitnesses on the ground. But comparing the time of the war and the song's release, it may seem that Halford had just wanted the song would be connected to USAF or the other "Devil Dogs" (a general US Marines nickname). Funny enough, due to the notable gap between Judas Priest and military affairs, opposite to the other British metal kings, the Iron Maiden.

    This song is about being touring and being on the road. The "they" in question are the band and crew. "Fist flying, eyes blazing. They're glory bound." They are comparing themselves to warriors. The song follows the most common theme in Judas Priest. Bringing the metal to the masses. That's what Hell Patrol is all about.

    Wow, these lyrics seem pretty clear to me. These are the guys and girls who protect us. They see war and violence for our defense (hell-riders). I see this as a great tribute to our men and women in Iraq, Vietnam, etc. These are very brave people "riding hell" for us.
