Lyrics
The Devil likes a war that lasts too long
It even makes the patriot sing a peaceful song
Is that six white horses
Or a long black hearse?
Our inheritance another war
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh yeah
The Devil so loved this world
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh yeah
The Devil so loved this world
It's a hard fight
Better than a shallow grave
It's a hard life
Got to have a mighty soul to endure
The façade, the face
The Devil set the race
And now he just watches,
We do the work for him
A fool would be frustrated
Wise words they're now hated
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh yeah
The Devil so loved this world
It's a hard fight
Better than a shallow grave
It's a hard life
You got to have a mighty soul to endure
Truth and rights
Never go out of style
Like a watchman guard the city
The prophet cries out in the wilderness
She is crying for her children
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh yeah
The Devil so loved this world
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh yeah
The Devil so loved this world
It's a hard fight
Better than a shallow grave
It's a hard life
Got to have a mighty soul to endure
It's a hard fight
Better than a shallow grave
It's a hard fife
Got to have a mighty soul to endure
Truth and rights
never go out of style
Like a watchman guard the city
A prophet cries out in the wilderness
She is crying for her children
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh yeah
The Devil so loved this world
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh yeah
The Devil so loved this world
