Blue Thunder Lyrics - Molly Hatchet

You know they come around town the midnight rambler 

The night shift gotta go 

O'Malley turned and baby got burned 

Went the way of the buffalo 

To protect and serve 

They're tryin' to keep the peace 

The rattler'll tell you that there ain't no mercy 

On the corner of 46th street 

Blue thunder, the keepers of the streets 

Blue thunder, the only number that you need 

Up to no good in the neighborhood 

A broken chain of command 

O'Hara snapped and got his head bad 

With cold beer and percodan 

Shotgun blast, mini mac justice 

When will the madness end? 

East side, west side all fired up 

No rest for the policeman 

The streets are insane 

On a night full of danger 

Honey, don't you get caught 

In a city by a stranger 

It's a contact sport in the game of life 

Hear a shot out your window tonight 

You're ready for the hell to end 

You're callin' 

Blue thunder, the keepers of the streets 

Blue thunder, the only number that you need 

An officer's killed, he was on the run 

A ten year old shot him just for fun 

He had two kids and a beautiful wife 

One split, second blinded by the light 

Take a chance on the midnight dance 

Talk about livin' hell 

There's one or twenty losers 

Trapped in the Tropicana Motel 

The streets are insane 

On a night full of danger 

Honey, don't you get caught 

In a city by a stranger 

It's a contact sport in the game of life 

Hear a shot out your window tonight 

You're ready for the hell to end 

You're callin' 

Blue thunder, the keepers of the streets 

Blue thunder, the only number that you need 

Blue thunder, the keepers of the beast callin' 

Blue thunder, the only number that you need
