Up Jumped The Devil |
|
O My O My |
|
What a wretched life |
|
I was born on the day |
|
That my poor mother died |
|
I was cut from her belly |
|
With a stanley knife |
|
My daddy did a jig |
|
With the drunk midwife |
|
Who's that younder all in flames |
|
Dragging behind him a sack of chains |
|
Who's that younder all in flames |
|
Up jumped the Devil and he staked his claim |
|
O poor heart |
|
I was doomed from the start |
|
Doomed to play |
|
The villians part |
|
I was the baddest Johnny |
|
In the apple cart |
|
My blood was blacker |
|
Than the of a dead nun's heart |
|
Who's that milling on the courthouse steps |
|
Nailing my face to the hitching fence |
|
Who's that milling on the courthouse steps |
|
Up jumped the Devil and off he crept |
|
O no O no |
|
Where could I go |
|
With my hump of trouble |
|
And my sack of woe |
|
To the digs and deserts of Mexico |
|
Where my neck was safe from the lynching rope |
|
Who's that younder laughing at me |
|
Like I was the brunt of some hilarity |
|
Who's that younder laughing at me |
|
Up jumped the Devil 1, 2, 3 |
|
Ha-Ha Ha Ha |
|
How lucky we were |
|
We hit the cathouse |
|
And sampled their whares |
|
We got as drunk |
|
As a couple of Czars |
|
One night I spat out |
|
My lucky stars |
|
Who's that dancing on the jailhouse roof |
|
Stamping on the ramping with a cloven hoof |
|
Who's that dancing on the jailhouse roof |
|
Up jumped the Devil and said "Here is your man and I got a proof" |
|
O no don't go O no |
|
O slow down Joe |
|
The righteous part |
|
I straight as an arrow |
|
Take a walk |
|
And you'll find it too narrow |
|
Too narrow for the likes of me |
|
Who's that hanging from the gallow tree |
|
His eyes are hollow but he looks like me |
|
Who's that swinging from the gallow tree |
|
Up jumped the Devil and took my soul from me |
|
Down we go Down we go Down we go |
|
The Devil and me Down we go down down down |
|
Hell fire and flames Down we go Down we go |
|
To Eternity Down we go We go down down down |
|
Down we go we go down down down |
|
Down we go the Devil and me to Eternity |
|
We go down down down down down ad inferno |
