The Devil To Pay Songtext
von Brian Capps

Go on girl, take your chances
See how long you can go on from man to man
I can read the lines between your stolen glances
And I know it′s time to fold this losing hand
'Cause you′re drawn to the flame by the thrill and the shame
Of the cheating games they taught you how to play
You've got nothing to lose but your soul girl
And you've only the devil to pay


You′ve been flying so high, you don′t know that you're blind
To the writing on the wall
But someday you′ll look down and you'll
Find you′ve got no place to fall
When the bright lights are gone, you'll be standing alone
Forsaken in the naked light of day
Then you′ll know it's all over but the dying
And you've still got the devil to pay

Join your friends while you′ve got them
′Cause you know they're getting fewer every day
You can′t wait to let them drag you to the bottom
And I'm getting tired of standing in the way
But when you hit the ground don′t come looking around
For the pieces of the love you threw away
That's the price of the high life you′re living
And you've still got the devil to pay


You've been flying so high, you don′t know that you′re blind
To the writing on the wall
But someday you'll look down and you′ll
Find you've got no place to fall
When the bright lights are gone, you′ll be standing alone
Forsaken in the naked light of day
Then you'll know it′s all over but the dying
And you've still got the devil to pay
