Hey, You Little Devil

I saw my desire as a lake of fire

And I was thinkin' bout taking a swim

She looked all right

Wearin' something tight

She said "Lover, won't you jump on in"

The I singed my feet

And I felt the heat

That's when I knew she was not my friend

So I declined in the nick of time

And I told her right there and then

(I said) Hey you little devil hey

Go on get out of my way

Hey you little devil hey

There's gonna be Hell to pay

He looked real astute in his three-piece suit

He said "Sign on the bottom of this page"

Then he smiled and I saw the fangs and the claws

In his eyes was a hunger and rage

Then it was clear to me I had a key

To loose a tiger from it's cage

I said "Sir I know your name

And the souls that you claimed

So Pardon me if I disengage"

Shuckin' a jivin'

Drinkin' and drivin'

But I know I'm gonna hit the wall

Jukin' and smokin'

Till I'm battered and broken

You can't get up until you fall

And the Joker he just laughs at it all

I know these tricks and how the game is fixed

How you gain the world and lose your soul

And how the still small voice

Says "Boy, you've got a choice

The courts of Heaven or the fires below"

I know what grace is

And how sin has it's wages

And how pride will take it's toll

I know the cross and the savior of the lost

And where the saints and the sinners go
