Devil's Side

Black as coal slap dab in the middle of the night

When the world comes crashin' down

Nothin' good ever happens after midnight in this ole town

Old crow comin' loud on the telephone wire

Tryna tell me what I can't see

Lose your soul if you don't listen carefully

It's so wrong, because it feels so right

Ain't no good gonna come from lyin where a snake lies

A stone you throw could come back and hit you in the eye

And it's hard to see Heaven when you live on the devil's side

Preacher man been workin' on a sermon for Sunday, tryin' to save our soul

Getting' harder everyday with the world spinnin' outta control

Must be your love draggin' me back here every week to this pew so I can pray

Tellin' me to be thankful every minute of every day

It's so wrong, because it feels so right

Ain't no good gonna come from lyin where a snake lies

A stone you throw could come back and hit you in the eye

And it's hard to see Heaven when you live on the devil's side

Black as coal, slap dab in the middle of the night when the world come crashin' down

Nothin' good ever happened after midnight in this ole town
