Don't Tread On Me Lyrics

Metallica – Don't Tread On Me Lyrics

from album: Metallica (1991)
[Intro]
Don't tread on me
I said, "Don't tread on me"

[Verse 1]
Liberty or Death
What we so proudly hail
Once you provoke her
Rattling of her tail
Never begins it
Never, but once engaged
Never surrenders
Showing her fangs of rage

I said, "Don't tread on me" !

[Chorus]
So be it, threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
So be it, settle the score
Touch me again for the words that you will hear evermore

Don't tread on me !

[Verse 2]
Love it or leave it
She with the deadly bite
Quick as the blue tongue
Forked as a lightning strike
Shining with brightness
Always in surveillance
Eyes, they never close
Emblem of vigilance

[Hook]
Ooh, no, no, no !
Said, "Don't tread on me" !

[Chorus]
So be it, threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
So be it, settle the score
Touch me again for the words that you will hear evermore

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
So be it, threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war

[Verse 3]
Liberty or death
What we so proudly hail
Once you provoke her
Rattling of her tail

[Chorus]
So be it, threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
So be it, settle the score
Touch me again for the words that you will hear evermore

[Outro]
Don't tread on me !!!
