(Shut de do, keep out the debil)
Good and bad was just a game

They proved to me they not the same
(Shut de do, keep the debil in de ni-eet)

Shut de do, keep out de debil

Oh, Satan is an evil charmer
(Shut de do, keep out the debil)
He's hungry for a soul to hurt
(Shut de do, keep the debil in de ni-eet)
And without your holy armor
(Shut de do, keep out the debil)
Listen to me
He will eat you for dessert
(Shut de do, keep the debil in de ni-eet)
Yes, he will, you gotta...

Shut de do, keep out de debil

Say a prayer, he will be back no more
