But I was killin' myself one shot at a time
Last night I told the Devil
Hell wasn't but a breath away
You know Heaven's got my soul
Burnin' up the days
You know Heaven's got my soul
Now it finally makes sense what the preacher said
Last night I told the Devil where to go
I could have saved myself a lot of hurtin' time
Every time she cried
Knocking at your door
Last night I told the Devil
Last night I told the Devil
You know Heaven's got my soul
Now when you hear that demon
So I hit my knee's in the street
Last night I told the Devil where to go
Do exactly what I did, yeah
Just another young man who had lost his way
His kind 'round here no more
'Cause if you wanna love, if you wanna live
The women and the wine
You just tell him you don't want
If I'd have just listened to my momma
Goin' insane from the pain
Well, I was way to lost in a sinner's haze
Ain't gonna listen to his lies no more
Yeah, everybody
When he said, "Son, you don't wanna wake up dead
Last night, well, I told the Devil where to go
Last night I told the Devil where to go
Last night I told the Devil
I ain't gonna listen to his lies no more
But I finally hit bottom in an alley way
Last night I told the Devil where to go
And begged God for mercy
Last night I told the Devil
If you wanna be free, you can't forget and forgive
Well ain't gonna listen to his lies no more
Anger so strong I couldn't stop myself
And find yourself alone in the fires of Hell"
You gotta kick him in the teeth and do exactly
