Lyrics The Devil - Jason Charles Miller

The Devil

We found him by the roadside
Nothing to him but his name
He struggled to his feet
Withered from the heat
Cussin' at the street
«I don’t want your help, I just want to know where I am.»
Then he slowly looked around
Recognized the town
Then he laid back down
If you think I’m the devil it’s only because I live in hell
If you’re looking for trouble you found it because I live in hell
When she walked into the courthouse
The blood on her blouse was still wet
They took one look at her face
Certain of the case
A horrible disgrace
«I don’t want your mercy, I want you to know why I’m here.»
Then she told them of the pain
The horrible refrain
Of a life in chains
If you think I’m the devil it’s only because I live in hell
If you’re looking for trouble you found it because I live in hell
Now I’m standing right in front of you
And the only thing I can pursue
Is to show you that I’m not what you think I am
So if you think I’m the devil it’s only because I live in hell
If you’re looking for trouble you found it because I live in hell
I live in hell
I live in hell
I live in hell
