The old devils are at it again

Who knows what they'll do

And its true right now like it was back then

The old devils are at it again

From behind these bars the view don't change

Desperation, death and despair

From what little I hear of the outside world

Well its not to different out there

And they tell me there's a war without no end

The old devils are at it again

They died by the millions, children, women and men

The old devils are at it again

When I say devils, you know who I mean

These animals in the dark

Malicious politicians with nefarious schemes

Charlatans and crooked cops

Moonshine still gets you five to ten

The old devils are at it again

Stripes on your back and a ball and chain

The old devils are at it again

Two men stare out of prison bars

Wondering what got um here

One saw mud but the other saw stars

Praying that the end is near

The billboard outside says confess your sins

The old devils are at it again

I guess I will confess that I've been suffering

The old devils are at it again

I said the old devils are at it again

Who knows what they'll do

And its true right now like it was back then

The old devils are at it again

I said the old devils are at it again
