[Short Instrumental Intro]

On the lonesome highway the roadways are slick
The temperature's dropping, the fog is too thick
The chill in the air mixed with oil in the lane
It's nature's creation to cause you great pain

Black ice, you're gonna wreck
Black ice, don't lose control
Black ice, you'll break your neck
Black ice, you're gonna wreck
Black ice, don't lose control
Black ice, you'll break your neck

So on your next journey just heed my advice
That shit killed Cliff Burton, beware of black ice
