Way Down in the Hole Lyrics
If you walk through the garden
You better watch your back
Well, I beg your pardon, walk the straight and narrow track
If you walk with Jesus, he's gonna save your soul
You gotta keep the Devil way down in the hole
He's got the fire and the fury at his command
Well, you don't have to worry if you hold on to Jesus' hand
We'll all be safe from Satan when the thunder rolls
We just got to keep the Devil way down in the hole
All the angels sing about Jesus' mighty sword
And they'll shield you with their wing
And keep you close to the Lord
Don't pay heed to temptation, for his hands are so cold
You gotta help me keep the Devil way down in the hole
Down in the hole
Down in the hole
Down in the hole
Down in the hole
Down in the hole
Down in the hole
You gotta help me keep the Devil down in the hole
