The Four Horsemen is the second song on their first album Kill Em' All.
Lyrics:

By the last breath of the fourth winds blow
Better raise your ears
The sound of hooves knocks at your door
Lock up your wife and children now
Its time to wield the blade
For now you have got some company

The horsemen are drawing nearer
On the leather steeds they ride
They have come to take your life
On through the dead of night
With the four horsemen ride
Or choose your fate and die

You have been dying since the day
You were born
You know it has all been planned
The quartet of deliverance rides
A sinner once a sinner twice
No need for confession now
Cause now you have got the fight of your life

The horsemen are drawing nearer
On the leather steeds they ride
They have come to take your life
On through the dead of night
With the four horsemen ride
Or choose your fate and die

Time
Has taken its toll on you
The lines that crack your face
Famine
Your body it has torn through
Withered in every place
Pestilence
For what you have had to endure
And what you have put others through
Death
Deliverance for you for sure
There is nothing you can do
So gather round young warriors now
And saddle up your steeds
Killing scores with demon swords
Now is the death of doers of wrong
Swing the judgment hammer down
Safely inside armor blood guts and sweat

The horsemen are drawing nearer
On the leather steeds they ride
They have come to take your life
On through the dead of night
With the four horsemen ride
Or choose your fate and die

  • Seriously, if you like Megadeth so much, then listen to them. FUCK.

    They are both great bands and just because Dave had writing credit didn't mean he wrote the whole fucking thing, all by himself.

    Not to mention he only co-wrote like 4 songs.

    Anyways, if you like Metallica, then shut the fuck up and headbang.

    If you like Megadeth, shut the fuck up and headbang.

    If you aren't a bitchy douchebag fanboy, headbang to both. (best option)

  • @jarrodwhite100 HELL YEAH!!! Metallica Kicks Serious Ass!!!  Been listening to Metallica for over 25 years, and I'm JUST GETTING STARTED!!! FUCK YEAH!!!

  • personally i think megadeths music is really good but mustaines voice is so fucking squealy

  • Did you hear that "Youtubers", a very slight timing issue between seconds 0:12 and 0:13. Don't get me wrong though, because I am huge fan!!! Look at my previous comment.

  • Stone washed jeans, reebok hightops, ripped up Metallica shirt, and a pack of Marlboro Reds. Driving a piece of shit camaro and a semi mullet hair cut!. Cassette player with Metallica jammin! Metal parties with a live band and 100's of people there mostly wearing jean jackets and smoking cigarettes. The daily regimen of a card carrying Metalhead from back in the day. Ahh those are the greatest memories of my life. All seems dull in comparison. Bring this baccccck!

  • This is one of the songs that put METALLICA on the top of the Heavy Metal genre, what mind blowing riffs(2:04) to mention one! Overall.....AMAZING!!!

  • great song.

  • Both The Four Horsemen and The Mechanix are good songs, but I prefer Metallica's solo

  • I FEEL AN ADRENALINE RUSHING IN MY VEINS!!!

  • the bass in this shit is rediculous, cliff was the fucking man on the "four string motherfucker"

  • Dave played it faster,James had better lyrics,but the mechanix and four horsemen are both badass
