lyrics

The Devil's Bar

I drank my soul from a bottle, a bottle I stole from the devil’s bar.
Even that old snake turns his head once in a while. I got a chance to run but not far.

I ran and hid in a corner. Found me in the shadows just like every other time.
Singing every gospel song I could remember. The Devil said it’s not so simple as a rhyme.

That good old book is just an old book.
Amazing Grace is just a song.
Just another way to tell you how to look
And I wrote it all along.

Sweet Jesus himself would not save me. Said you got into this on your own.
Raised his hand and waved goodbye to me. Turned his back and was gone. I’ll be damned.

The Devil said well I guess it’s back to me. Believe you’ve got a due to pay.
‘Cause once you go blind, you ain’t never gonna see. I don’t care what the good people say.

That good old book is just an old book.
Amazing Grace is just a song.
Just another way to tell you how to look
And I wrote it all along.
