| I was alone on the crossroads
|
| Reved up and ready to roll
|
| Out in the distance he slowly approached
|
| A trail of sulfer and smoke
|
| He had been watching me for a while
|
| I challenged him to a drive
|
| He answered me with a smile
|
| Then we raced the devil’s mile
|
| I pushed the pedal to the metal
|
| It almost went right through the floor
|
| I saw him in my rear view window
|
| I knew she couldn’t take much more
|
| He drives a demon machine
|
| Hellfire sorcery and steam
|
| His challenges are never fair
|
| But I drive like I just don’t care
|
| The devil’s mile
|
| I probably won’t see 25
|
| So I get in my car and I drive
|
| I am seizing this throne
|
| I’ll go it alone riding high
|
| I feel the adrenaline race
|
| Each day I stare death in the face
|
| Well it might be my last
|
| So I’m kicking his ass every time
|
| Like a rocket he blew by me
|
| I quickly had to swerve
|
| But I own this stretch of highway
|
| I am the king of dead man’s curve
|
| The devil’s demons built a fast car
|
| It’s the supremacy of speed
|
| But this one mile it isn’t that far
|
| And I’ve got just what I need
|
| I caught up and looked right over
|
| He looked back looking mean
|
| Then he bumped me to the shoulder
|
| I’m looking low on gasoline
|
| The devil’s mile
|
| I probably won’t see 25
|
| So I get in my car and I drive
|
| I am seizing this throne
|
| I’ll go it alone riding high
|
| I feel the adrenaline race
|
| Each day I stare death in the face
|
| Well it might be my last
|
| So I’m kicking his ass every time
|
| I rule the roads just like I rule in hell
|
| All who have raced me have not lived to tell
|
| When you lose you know where you’re going to
|
| Now let me show you the things I can do
|
| I called upon you I asked for this test
|
| You may be the devil but I am the best
|
| I know the deal so I wagered my soul
|
| But when you lose I get a car made of gold
|
| He knew he couldn’t shake me
|
| I had to make my move
|
| We hit the corner going full speed
|
| Racing neck and neck
|
| I took the inside and took the lead
|
| He flew off in a flaming wreck
|
| The devil’s mile
|
| I probably won’t see 25
|
| So I get in my car and I drive
|
| I am seizing this throne
|
| I’ll go it alone riding high
|
| I feel the adrenaline race
|
| Each day I stare death in the face
|
| Well it might be my last
|
| So I’m kicking his ass every time
|
| The sun was setting in the sky
|
| As I looked down into the flames
|
| The smoke was black as it rised
|
| From the devil’s machine
|
| How did I ever survive
|
| I’ll be wondering for a while
|
| Now you know what it’s like
|
| To race the devil’s mile |
