i beat the devil - bill bailey lyrics

Loading...

a long time ago
in a place not unlike this

i was feeling low

and i stared into the abyss
and i prayed to the lord

but i’m a sinner!

so i was not prioritised

a heavenly voice said
you’re prayer is important to the lord
we are currently experiencing
a high volume of prayer

some prayers are recorded
for training purposes

you are currently 8 millionth in the queue

well i was alone and confused
like a pangolin in sp*ce

and in my time of torment
help came from a different place

well i stood on the cliff top
i looked down at the sea
i heard the devil whisper

“are you looking for me”

deal out the cards son
and your soul will be released
but understand if you lose this hand
your soul belongs to me

deal out the cards son
and your soul will be released

name your card game son

i said happy families

well the devil raised an eyebrow
he said prepare to meet thy maker
well i looked the devil
in the eye
and played mr bun the baker
well a crowd of demons
laughed and shrieked
and the devils fork got closer

the devil looked me
right in the eye
and played mr grits the grocer

well the devil started cackling
and he be cackling yet
but the prince of lies
had no reply
to mr flea the vet

well the devil hung his head that day
and my soul jumped for joy
cause the devil knew
i still had in my hand
jones the delivery boy

i beat the devil on that day
i drank from life’s sweet cup
cause there ain’t no jones the delivery boy
i made the sucker up

i beat the devil
beat the devil
beat the devil
