Up Jumped The Devil
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, I saw you sneaking
Round my neighborhood
I can tell by looking
You're just no good
Scarrier than hell
With your long black hair
When you walk along by
Make a blind man stare
Come into my house
My pig just squeal
Walk into my room
The wallpaper peel
Up jump the devil
When you come around
Soon as you leave
He go back in the ground
Devil's with the pig
And I spit in his eye
When I come around here
Then my cow went dry
My hens won't lay
And my ducks won't quack
Since you brought the devil
Round my chicken shack
Well, you and the devil
Make a terrible pair
Make me jump out
My long underwear
Devil was a laughing
But I ain't afraid
Set the place on fire
Put it out with a spade
Up jump the devil
When you come around
Soon as you leave
He go back in the ground
