Possessed
I know you've heard of the cross roads
Where Johnson sold his soul
And stories about a pretty blue dress
And a fiddle made of gold
Sympathy for the devil
Ain't the nature of my game
So I went on down to Georgia
Lookin' to stake my claim
Momma was a witchy woman
Taught me how to cast my spell
Tonight there's a bad moon rising
Lighting up the highway to hell
I burned down that dirt road
With the pedal mashed to the floor
When I get done with that son of a bitch
He'll be knockin on heaven's door
Guns, knives, or chains
Pick how you wanna die
They'll sing you a song
When things go wrong
That'll make all your hellions cry
I may not be the biggest
And I damn sure ain't the best
When it comes to lockin' horns with you
I'll be the one possessed
Daddy was a magic man
Born under a bad sign
Lost his soul when he lost a bet
And now he's doing time
I know Big Red must've cheated
When he dealt that hand of cards
There ain't no way Daddy'd go all in
With nothing but the queen of hearts
Guns, knives, or chains
Pick how you wanna die
They'll sing you a song
When things go wrong
That'll make all your hellions cry
I may not be the biggest
And I damn sure ain't the best
when it comes to lockin' horns with you
I'll be the one possessed
I'm a voodoo chile with a vengeance
Looking for that angel of death
I'll chase him down like a hell hound
Until my dying breath
Now running with the devil
Ain't the smartest thing to do
He'll pretend to be your friend
While you cry a song sung blue
He'll tell you what you wanna hear
Even promise you the world
Then right before your very eyes
He'll turn into a beautiful girl
You can never be too careful
While she spins her web of lies
The best I can say is stay away
From that devil in disguise
Guns, knives, or chains
Pick how you wanna die
They'll sing you a song
When things go wrong
That'll make all your hellions cry
I may not be the biggest
And I damn sure ain't the best
When it comes to lockin' horns with you
I'll be the one possessed
I'll be the one possessed
Mhmm, I'll be the one possessed
I'll be the one possessed
Mhmm, I'll be the one possessed
Where Johnson sold his soul
And stories about a pretty blue dress
And a fiddle made of gold
Sympathy for the devil
Ain't the nature of my game
