The Devil

[Verse]
We found 'im 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

[Chorus]
If you think I'm the devil, it's only because I live in hell
If you're lookin' for trouble, you found it because I live in hell

[Verse]
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

[Chorus]
If you think I'm the devil, it's only because I live in hell
If you're lookin' for trouble, you found it because I live in hell

[Bridge]
Now I'm standin' 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

[Chorus]
So if you think I'm the devil, it's only because I live in hell
And if you're lookin' for trouble, you found it because I live in hell
I live in hell
I live in hell
