Shout to the Devil
"Son," said the preacher "'Fore I break the news"
"Let me take you to the heart of this promised land"
Built on the green hill far away
Where somebody died, somebody cried in the wind
You don't have to run to the palaces of gold
Bricks and mortar one day must surely fall
He will look Monroe right between the eyes
And pray that somehow
Someone's gonna come along and save her
Save her soul
And we're gonna shout to the devil
Gonna shout to the sky
Shout to the gods almighty high
Preacher (preacher), teacher (teacher)
Preacher (preacher), teacher (teacher)
It's in my heart and it's in the soul
Look no further than your own backyard
Live your life as it should be lived
Follow your heart for the truth is everlasting
And the wine runs cold in the blood of men
The bread is dry, stale pushed in the back of your mind
And the senator's dream is running wild today
And the big duke's star in death
Still fighting off the hounds of hell
And we all fall short of the glory my friend
Even all the king's horses and all the king's business men
I've got a golden eagle flying high
But I and I still find it hard to keep the wolves at bay, ah-woo!
And we're gonna shout to the devil
Gonna shout to the sky
Shout to the gods almighty high
Shout to the devil
Gonna shout to the sky
Shout to the gods almighty high
Preacher (preacher)
Teacher (teacher)
Preacher (preacher)
Teacher (teacher)
It's in my heart and it's in the soul
Look no further than your own backyard
Live your life as it should be lived
Follow your heart for the truth is everlasting, yeah
And we're gonna shout to the devil
Gonna shout to the sky
Shout to the gods almighty high
Shout to the devil
Gonna shout to the sky
Shout to the gods almighty high
Preacher (shout to the devil)
(Gonna shout to the sky)
(Shout to the gods almighty high)
(Shout to the devil)
(Gonna shout to the sky)
(Shout to the gods almighty high)
Teacher (shout to the devil)
(Gonna shout to the sky)
(Shout to the gods almighty high)
I'm gonna shout to the devil
Gonna shout to the sky
Shout to the gods almighty high
Shout to the devil
Gonna shout to the sky
Shout to the gods almighty high
Preacher (shout to the devil)
(Gonna shout to the sky)
(Shout to the gods almighty high)
