Lyrics
- WELL THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT, DO IT, DO IT
- THE DEVIL MADE ME TRIP AND FALL
- THE DEVIL DROVE ME TO IT, TO IT, TO IT
- TILL I HAD NO CHANCE AT ALL
- WHAT DID I DO THAT WAS SO BAD
- TO GO AND GET MYSELF ARRESTED
- JUST IN TOWN TO HAVE SOME FUN
- BUT I END UP IN THE TRASH CAN
- THERE I WAS IN THE WITNESS STAND
- MY EYES TURNED TOWARDS THE JURY
- TRYING TO RECALL WHAT WENT WRONG LAST NIGHT
- BUT IT WON’T COME RIGHT BACK TO ME
- YEAH THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT, DO IT, DO IT
- THE DEVIL MADE ME TRIP AND FALL
- THE DEVIL DROVE ME TO IT, TO IT, TO IT
- TILL I HAD NO MIND AT ALL
- THE LAWYER SAID ‘SON, WON’T YOU PLEAD THE FIFTH’
- AND DON’T SPEAK UNLESS YOU’RE REQUESTED
- USING ALL THE WORDS AT HIS COMMAND
- HIS SKILLS WERE SORELY TESTED
- THEN TO MY COMPLETE SURPRISE
- THEY WENT AND CALLED A HOSTILE WITNESS
- THE DEVIL HIMSELF WELL HE TOOK THE STAND
- AND THAT’S WHERE MY CASE RESTED
- WELL THE DEMON DROVE ME TO IT, TO IT, TO IT
- THE DEVIL MADE ME TRIP AND FALL
- THE DEMON DROVE ME TO IT, TO IT, TO IT
- TILL I HAD NO CHANCE AT ALL
- WHAT DID I DO THAT WAS SO BAD
- TO GO AND GET MYSELF ARRESTED
- WELL, JUST IN TOWN TO HAVE SOME FUN
- BUT I END UP IN THE TRASH CAN
- THERE I WAS IN THE WITNESS BOX
- MY EYES TURNED TOWARDS THE JURY
- TRYING TO RECALL WHAT WENT WRONG LAST NIGHT
- BUT IT WON’T COME RIGHT BACK TO ME
- YEAH THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT, DO IT, DO IT
- THE DEVIL MADE ME TRIP AND FALL
- THE DEVIL DROVE ME TO IT, TO IT, TO IT
- TILL I HAD NO MIND AT ALL
- WELL THE DEVIL DROVE ME TO IT, TO IT, TO IT
- THE DEVIL MADE ME TRIP AND FALL
- THE DEVIL DROVE ME TO IT, TO IT, TO IT
- TILL I HAD NO CHANCE AT ALL
- WELL THE DEVIL DROVE ME TO IT, TO IT, TO IT
- THE DEVIL MADE ME TRIP AND FALL
- THE DEMON DROVE ME TO IT, TO IT, TO IT
- TILL I HAD NO CHANCE AT ALL
- TILL I HAD NO CHANCE AT ALL
- TILL I HAD NO MIND AT ALL
