If I Was 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.
If you don't like sunny days
Then I'll make it rain
Make a bird sing
Any song you wanna hear it singing
Fix all your broken things
If I was the devil
I'll take you down
And put you in my house
Keep you nice and close
Teach you what you don't know
I'll take you from the holy ghost
If I was the devil
You might not believe in me
But I'll make you believe
And you'll know my name
You might not believe me
But I'll make you believe
And you'll know my name
So take me home to your dad
I'll give him something he never had
Make your mama love me
Your sister might wanna touch me
But I'll be yours and yours only
If I was the devil
