All set court's in session
This judge got no compassion
Witness show me your right hand
I swear nothin' but the truth now
I was allright till she came along
I was allright then it all went wrong
The devil made me do it
It was an act of a man possessed now
Yeah, the devil made me do it
Your honour I am innocent
D.A.'s got a mighty strong case
Lawman saw the whole thing
Confess I stole that furcoat
Confess I stole a BMW
Confess I was only tryin' to keep my baby satisfied
Bullshit that's the truth now
Bullshit so help me God
I was allright till she came along
I was allright then it all went wrong
The devil made me do it
It was an act of a man possessed now
Yeah, the devil made me do it
Your honour I am innocent, I'm innocent
Seen her slide out of her neglige
Her skin was hot touch intoxicating
And if you were me you would have done the same
So spare me the gutter
Save me from the ball and chain
The devil made me do it
It was an act of a man possessed now
Yeah, the devil made me do it
Your honour I am innocent, I am innocent
I was allright till she came along
I was allright then it all went wrong
The devil made me do it
I said the devil made me do it
The devil made me do it
Devil made me do it, yeah
I stole a car just for my baby
I robbed a bank just for my baby
I stole a diamond ring just for my baby
I stole a voodoo doll for my baby
The devil made me do it
I said the devil made me do it
The devil made me do it
Devil made me do it
Devil made me do it
Devil made me do it
