Lyrics:

Close the door, put out the light
Y'know they won't be home tonight, oh-whoa-whoa-oh
The snow falls hard, and don't ya know
The winds of Thor are blowin' cold
They're wearin' steel that's bright and true, ooh, ooh
They carry news that must get through
They choose the path where no one goes

They hold no quarter, they, they hold no quarter
Uhh-uh-uh, uh-uh, uhh-huh

(Piano Solo)

(Guitar Solo)

Walkin' side by side with death
The Devil mocks their every step, ooh, ooh-ooh
The snow drives back the foot that's slow
The dogs of doom are howlin' more, oh, oh-oh
They carry news that must get through
To build a dream for me and you, aw-whoa-whoa
They choose the path where no one goes, oh-oh, ooh-ooh

They hold no quarter, they ask no quarter
They hold no quarter, they ask no quarter, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ahh, ahh, ah-ah-ah-ha, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
(Oh, the pain, the pain without quarter, oh, ho, oh, oh, oh)
They ask no quarter
(Ah, yeah, without quarter, quarter, quarter, won't they give me no)
They need no quarter
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ha-ah-ah ha-ah, ha-ha
(Dogs of doom are howlin' more, give me quarter)
(I hear the dogs of doom a-howlin' more)
