Devil off My Back

[Verse 1]

Woke up this morning sometime around 3 a.m

Dripping wet, beads of sweat rolling down my skin

Lately, I can't sleep, I got hell on my mind

Running on empty, Lord, I'm running dry

[Verse 2]

Sometimes the temptation is just too much to bear

It's just too much whiskey and girls with long dark hair

I know I should pay my tab and call a cab back home

But I hate to sleep alone

[Chorus]

I hear them coming, trying to take my soul away

Making deals with the devil, now it's time to pay

I keep on running, pray my heart don't turn to black

Can't shake the devil off my back

[Verse 3]

I'll fight the good fight 'til the very end

Gonna climb that mountain with all of my friends

When I get to the top gonna turn around and yell

"Devil go back to hell"

[Chorus]

I hear them coming, trying to take my soul away

Making deals with the devil, now it's time to pay

I keep on running, pray my heart don't turn to black

Can't shake the devil off my back

I hear them coming, trying to take my soul away

Making deals with the devil, now it's time to pay

I keep on running, pray my heart don't turn to black

Can't shake the devil off my back

[Outro]

Devil off my back

Devil off my back

Devil off my back

Can't shake the devil...
