The Hounds of Hell

You wait so still at the crossroad tonight
The moon rises into the black sky
Your family for generations is poor
You're sick and you're tired and you want more

Trade your soul for fortune and fame
The devil's got you one in his spell, he loves this game
The hounds of hell will track you tonight
They smell your sins, they'll take your life

A bad moon is rising into the night sky
The last thing you'll see is the pale ghostly light
The devil shows himself to you in a dream
He promises heaven, guitars with gold strings

Don't take his word, he's a thief and a liar
If you sign his contract, you're burning his fire
Trade your soul for fortune and fame
The devil's got you one in his spell, he loves this game

The hounds of hell will track you tonight
They smell your sins, they'll take your life
The devil's deal, his promises are lies
Don't sign your name on the dotted line

The hounds of hell will track you tonight
They smell your sins, they'll take your life
A bad moon is rising into the night sky
The last thing you'll see is the pale ghostly light

The hounds of hell will chase you tonight
They taste your sins, they'll take your life
The devil's deal, his promises are lies
Don't sign your name on the dotted line
