The Day The Devil Lyrics

The day the devil comes to getcha
you know him by the way he smiles
The
day the devil comes to getcha
He's a rusty truck with only twenty
miles
He's got bad brakes he's got loose teeth
He's a long way from
home
The day the devil comes to getcha
he's got a smile like a scar
He
knows the way to your house
He's got the keys to your car
And when he
sells you his sportcoat
You say:  Funny!  That's my size
Attention
shoppers!
Everybody please rise
Give me back my innocence
Get me a
brand new suit
Give me back my innocence
Oh Lord!  Cut me down to
size
Well you can hide under the porch
And you can hide behind the
couch
But the day the devil comes to getcha
He's right on time
Here he
comes
Well I'm sick of hearin bout your problems
Yeah girlie your breakin
my heart
I'm the original party animal
Hey!  Hey!  Babaloo
So don't
come bangin your Bibles
Cause you've been laughin
all the way to the
bank
And don't give me those crocodile tears
Cause you've been doing it
for years
I'm everywhere!  Sign right here
Mr. Jones
The day the devil
comes to getcha
He's a long way from home
And you know he's gonna
getcha
Cause you're stuck in the middle
Everybody please rise
Give me
back my innocence
Get me a brand new suit
Give me back my innocence
Oh
Lord!  Cut me down to size
Give me back my innocence
Get me a new
Cadillac
Cause when I get on up to heave Lord
You can have it all
back
Cause in heaven, you get it all back
In heaven it all comes
back
Cause in heaven, you get it all back
In heaven
Cause in
heaven......
In heaven......
