The Devil Made Me Do It Songtext
von Golden Earring

(All set) the court′s in session
(This judge) got no compassion
(Witness) oh, show me your right hand
(I swear) nothing but the truth now

I was alright 'til she came along
I was alright, then it all went wrong (yeah)

The devil made me do it (oh-oh-oh-oh)
It was the act of a man possessed, yeah (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, the devil made me do it (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Your Honor, I plead innocent

(D.A.′s) got a mighty strong case
(Lawman) saw the whole thing
(Confess) yeah, I stole that fur coat
(Confess) I stole a BMW
(Confess) I was only trying
To keep my baby satisfied
(Bullshit) that's the truth now
(Bullshit) so help me, God


I was alright 'til she came along
I was alright, then it all went wrong (yeah)

The devil made me do it (oh-oh-oh-oh)
It was the act of a man possessed now (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, the devil made me do it (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Your Honor, I am innocent (oh-oh-oh)
Innocent (oh-oh-oh)

See her slide out of her negligee
Her skin was hot, touching, ′toxicating
And if you were me, you would have done the same
So spare me the gutter, save me from the ball and chain

The devil made me do it (oh-oh-oh-oh)
It was the act of a man possessed now (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, the devil made me do it (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Your Honor, I am innocent, innocent (oh-oh-oh-oh)

The devil made me do it (oh-oh-oh-oh)
It was an act of self-defense now (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, the devil made me do it (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Your Honor, it was an accident (oh-oh-oh-oh)

The devil made me do it (oh-oh-oh-oh)
The devil made me do it (oh)
