Devil To Pay Songtext

Devil To Pay Songtext
Since the day I took my very first breath
The devil′s had my name
And I know when I take my last
St. Peter won't hold the gate
I saw the bonfire ′fore the flames
So I threw my caution into the wind
I locked away my guilty conscience
Cut off the correspondence
And I let my demons in
Oh, I'm gonna feed 'em ′til they′re begging
Oh, for me to slow down
Hey, don't waste all of your prayers
I′m gonna have fun counting my change
If it's the devil to pay
It′s the devil to pay
With every sniff of this cheap cocaine
I get one step closer to home
I wash it down with some whiskey
My mama's gonna miss me
If I keep walking down this road
Oh, I′m gonna feed 'em 'til they′re begging
Oh, for me to slow down
Hey, don′t waste all of your prayers
I'm gonna have fun counting my change
If it′s the devil to pay
It's the devil to pay
It′s the devil to pay
Write it in blood on the dotted line
That says your soul will forever be mine
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Oh, I'm gonna feed ′em 'til they're begging
Oh, for me to slow down
Hey, don′t waste all of your prayers
I′m gonna have fun counting my change
'Cause it′s the devil to pay
It's the devil to pay
It′s the devil to pay
It's the devil to pay now
The devil′s had my name
And I know when I take my last
St. Peter won't hold the gate
I saw the bonfire ′fore the flames
So I threw my caution into the wind
I locked away my guilty conscience
Cut off the correspondence
And I let my demons in
Oh, I'm gonna feed 'em ′til they′re begging
Oh, for me to slow down
Hey, don't waste all of your prayers
I′m gonna have fun counting my change
If it's the devil to pay
It′s the devil to pay
With every sniff of this cheap cocaine
I get one step closer to home
I wash it down with some whiskey
My mama's gonna miss me
If I keep walking down this road
Oh, I′m gonna feed 'em 'til they′re begging
Oh, for me to slow down
Hey, don′t waste all of your prayers
I'm gonna have fun counting my change
If it′s the devil to pay
It's the devil to pay
It′s the devil to pay
Write it in blood on the dotted line
That says your soul will forever be mine
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Oh, I'm gonna feed ′em 'til they're begging
Oh, for me to slow down
Hey, don′t waste all of your prayers
I′m gonna have fun counting my change
'Cause it′s the devil to pay
It's the devil to pay
It′s the devil to pay
It's the devil to pay now
