The Devil

We found him by the roadside Nothing to him but his name He struggled to his feet Withered from the heat Cussing at the street "I don't want your help, I just want to know where I am." Then he slowly looked around Recognized the town Then he laid back down If you think I'm the devil it's only because I live in hell If you're looking for trouble you found it because I live in hell When she walked into the courthouse The blood on her blouse was still wet They took one look at her face Certain of the case A horrible disgrace "I don't want your mercy, I want you to know why I'm here." Then she told them of the pain The horrible refrain Of a life in chains If you think I'm the devil it's only because I live in hell If you're looking for trouble you found it because I live in hell Now I'm standing right in front of you And the only thing I can pursue Is to show you that I'm not what you think I am So if you think I'm the devil it's only because I live in hell And if you're looking for trouble you found it because I live in hell I live in hell I live in hell I live in hell
