[Verse 1]
I'm goin' up them stairs
I'm gonna pack a bag
I'm gonna do everything in the world that my grandma ever wish she had
[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't want no man, hunting after me
I'm gonna take the first train I can catch
Straight out of Caroline
If I can stay away for good
I ain't comin' back this time
[Pre-Chorus]
So don't be lookin' for me
Comin' down the road
I'm way too far
Down Pacolet Road
[Chorus]
Say a little prayer for me
I was gone as gone can be
He held on tight, I could not breathe
The devil has a hold on me
[Verse 2]
I always knew I'd be the first one to run 'round the world and back
And you can call me crazy maybe but, hey
I'm proud of that
[Pre-Chorus]
And I bet that you
Would be crazy too
I bet that you
A little crazy too
[Chorus]
Say a little prayer for me
I was gone as gone can be
He held on tight, I could not breathe
The devil has a hold on me
Well, I'll be damned, I do believe
My faith has made a fool of me
Call that man from Galilee
The devil has a hold on me
[Bridge]
The devil in her Sunday best
The devil never ever rest
And, devil, I do declare
I didn't see ya standing there
The devil in between the trees
The devil point a gun at me
The devil gonna shoot me down
And leave me bleedin' on the ground
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm gonna take the first train I can catch
Straight out of Caroline
If I can stay away for good
I ain't comin' back this time
[Chorus]
Say a little prayer for me
I was gone as gone can be
He held on tight, I could not breathe
The devil has a hold on me
Well, I'll be damned, I do believe
My faith has made a fool of me
Call that man from Galilee
The devil has a hold on me
[Outro]
The devil has a hold on me
The devil has a hold of me
