Lyrics Devil Running - John Butler Trio

Devil Running

Sun does rise in distance lands
Tears run and fires burning
Fines this place, dirty hand
He graduates man and we are learning
And they just sit so long ago
They send a bluff to reach the master
The hands stand still right by his side
With a finger on the button of disaster
And most of us we stand and watch
While the lady gets her handbag stolen
It’s time to chase, chase the criminal
I see the devil and the devil is running
That business lies between us now
Back stab man and go be forgotten
And we are not forgotten now
Seeds fall but now are rotten
Now hate and fear head the wrong way
And then the this scum is just another distraction
They both will need to be lanced
And when its found they will blame the guilty faction
And now its time not to just watch
While the lady gets her handbag stolen
It’s time to chase, chase the criminal
I see the devil and the devil is running
Evil man, evil man
And now its time not to just watch
While the lady gets her handbag stolen
It’s time to chase, chase the criminal
I see the devil and the devil is running
And now its time not to just watch
While the lady gets her handbag stolen
It’s time to chase, chase the criminal
I see the devil and the devil is running
