I saw the devil one day, i ran away, I ran away,
 I saw the devil one day, i ran away, I ran away,

 cause she had such a charming body
 the eyes as sweet as a honey be
 she said "my name is"...
 but faster i ran than a bullet out of a gun

 listen to me attentively, I did what I did, I ain't a coward you see, 
 the devil ain't gonna ever let you free, you'll be she slave for eternity

 don't you be fooled by them innocent eyes
 you stare too long? oh you will pay the price
 so this what I say
 go home and start praying that you'll never see she again

 But then this morning at half past four, I woke from a slumber and I said oh oh
 the next time that I see she going by I sure gonna walk up to she with pride

 do they not say when something makes you fraid
 face it until all your fears gone away
 I'll take my chance
 and won't shame if me too wanna know the devil's name

 I saw the devil one day I ran away, I ran away,
 I saw the devil one day, why didn't I stay, why didn't I stay
 I saw the devil one day I ran away, I ran away,
 i saw the devil one day, oh what i fool that I didn't stay
