Lyrics
Evil Be Gone
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.
I am a child and I'm pretty smart
But I'm just a little afraid of the dark
Sometimes I have to go outside at night
Out to the back yard, where there is no light
When I step out the door
And I can't take one step more
Because I am too much afraid
It's then that I've been taught to say
Evil be gone
After I say it, I open my eyes
Then I take a deep breath and step out in the night
It's still dark around me, I still walk real slow
But it makes me feel better, like I'm not alone
When I step out the door
And I can't take one step more
Because I am too much afraid
It's then that I've been taught to say
Evil be gone
And Mom and Dad say it's true that
Sometimes they say it, too
So it shouldn't make me feel strange
To say, every time I'm afraid
Evil be gone
