I thought I heard the devil
He was talkin' in my ear
He said you got no worries
As long as I am here
You know you are my buddy
We go back a long long way
You got no problems
If you do the things I say
I said
I don't think that would be so smart
I know you wanna tear my soul apart
You wanna tear it all apart
I thought I saw the devil
He was standin' at the bar
He was sippin' on some whiskey
He was smokin' a cigar
He said I know some ladies
I brought them just for you
They are more than willing
To do what you wanna do
And I said
I don't think that would be so smart
I know you wanna tear my soul apart
You wanna tear it all apart
I saw the devil
He was walkin' next to me
He said I'm here to help you
To be all that you can be
I'll take away your pain and
Help you make it through the night
Put your trust in me and
I'll make everything all right
I said
I don't think that would be so smart
I know you wanna tear my soul apart
You wanna tear it all apart
