The Devil Came To Fremont Street

The devil came to Fremont Street in 1859

Looked around and liked just what he saw

Said I think I might be home now

I like the way this feels

A place where I can live outside the law...

Now he knew he's on to something

But he knew it'd take some time

So he laid back 'neath the clear Nevada sky

Let the desert wrap around him

And pull him deep inside

Wrap around him like some lover's lonesome lies...

And you can find 'bout anything you want here

But you know you might go crazy from the heat

But one thing that's for certain

It'll never be the same

From the day the devil came to Freemont Street...

And they came from out of nowhere

Just like he knew they would

Leavin' everything behind for one last chance

To roll the dice and spin the wheel

Forgetting every time

You gotta pay the band boy if you wanna dance...

And you can find 'bout anything you want here

But you know you might go crazy from the heat

But one thing that's for certain

It'll never be the same

From the day the devil came to Freemont Street...

Now he glides across the desert

He checks in from time to time

'Cause he likes to see exactly what he's done

And he smiles 'cause in the distance

The neon lights the sky

Glowing like some evil midnight sun...

And you can find 'bout anything you want here

But you know you might go crazy from the heat

But one thing that's for certain

It'll never be the same

From the day the devil came to Freemont Street...

And you can find 'bout anything you want here

But you know you might go crazy from the heat

But one thing that's for certain

It'll never be the same

From the day the devil came to Freemont Street...
