I've got books that say
the good man's golden
And more that say
the bad will fall
So many men have drowned in evil
and left Lucifer standing tall
Don't take the devil's dare
don't gamble
when the game ain't fair
Lock and bolt the doors
can't let the devil
use you anymore
<Interlude>
You got to listen
all you mugs and reivers
if you do any wrong
You make it right
You can't be a make believer
'cause soon you're gonna
pay the price
Lying, hat and pain
all part of the devil game
Got his foot inside the door
but you can't let him
use you anymore
<Interlude>
Take, he will take
he will take
give him nothing he'll take
he will take He will take
he will give nothing
but he'll take
he will take He will take
he will give nothing
but he'll take
he will take He will take
he will give nothing
but he'll take
<Interlude>
Pray, for devils have no reason
Satan waits to curse your ways
Have you seen it
in his eyes in the sunset
Have you wondered
if he's laughing when you play
Has he asked if you're alone
if what he sees is all you own
Has he offered you happiness
money, or much better lays
Satan leave me
leave me lonely, leave us alone
<Interlude>
I've got books that say
the good man's golden
And more that say
the bad will fall
Take a look at
what the future's holdin'
Won't be yours
if you don't heed this call
Life is a game
and the stakes
will remain the same
Now you've gotta choose
is the devil gonna win
or lose again
sh that I could talk to you
Be with you somehow
I know you're in a better place
And you know I can see your face
I know you're smiling down on me
Saying everything's okay
I wish that I could hold you now
I wish that I could
touch you now
