Devil please dont take me down
All the way on down to hell
Devil please dont take me down
Down to my grave
Mama's been crying for days
Her sons on that killing line
Mamas been crying for days
She hears the devil coming down the line
Mr. Devil, Mr. Devil, dont you take me down
Down to the gallows
Mr. devil, mr. devil dont you take me down
Down to the gallows
Down to my grave
I can feel the heat underneath my skin
Of that electric chair
I can feel the boiling blaze
Of the hell thats coming near
I killed my only love
I shot her down three times
I killed my only love
Now they sentenced me to die
Mr. Devil, Mr. Devil, dont you take me down
Down to the gallows
Mr. devil, mr. devil dont you take me down
Down to the gallows
Down to my grave
