Holler Devil
It's a buzz it's the fuzz
Bumble bees and black molasses
Dripping sap from the stone
Trees bend and crack around us
In the 'cane in the rain
Kissing moonshine wishes
Broken sink filled with mud
And dirty splintered dishes
Shards and needles little pieces
Count the buttons as she teases
An inch away from Jesus
Hear the devil cry
The tracks are growing twisted
Rivers winking at the moon
Coyotes and buzzards
Sucking cigarettes and spoons
Clawing at the clay
With the roosters and the crows
They'll all keep singing baby
While you decompose
Cement shoes poison ivy coat
Barbed wire wrapped round her pretty little throat
She sucks the ink dry from the scriptures she quotes
Listen real close you'll hear the devil cry
Cadillac jack the Devils
Clinging to your back
Dancin' on the sidewalk crack
Break your God damned back
She's crying and she's begging
For her sweet child's salvation
But God needs another baby
Stop at saint Peter's station
Gotta fresh coat of cyanide blue
And homicide white
Soak in turpentine wine
And the blood of Christ
Holler devil
Holler devil
Holler devil
Hear him cry
He didn't have to try
To break the frail soul of men
Keep treading on the heels of
Gods god damned plan
The rainbow serenade
Of the mid August heat
She's laying naked on the grass
The moon splashing on her feet
Rattles like chains
On the rusty shingle tin
So I take her to the river
Baptize her sin
They say they want faith
What they need is love
They say they want wisdom
Give 'em whiskey in the jug
They say they want truth
But it can't be found
Take the devil by the tail
And throw him to the ground
The wind starts shouting
Rain tip tapping
Lightning Sparks
Thunder booming and clapping
To the beat
So Holler devil
Hear him cry
Bumble bees and black molasses
Dripping sap from the stone
Trees bend and crack around us
In the 'cane in the rain
Kissing moonshine wishes
Broken sink filled with mud
And dirty splintered dishes
Shards and needles little pieces
Count the buttons as she teases
An inch away from Jesus
Hear the devil cry
The tracks are growing twisted
Rivers winking at the moon
Coyotes and buzzards
Sucking cigarettes and spoons
Clawing at the clay
With the roosters and the crows
They'll all keep singing baby
While you decompose
Cement shoes poison ivy coat
Barbed wire wrapped round her pretty little throat
She sucks the ink dry from the scriptures she quotes
Listen real close you'll hear the devil cry
Cadillac jack the Devils
Clinging to your back
Dancin' on the sidewalk crack
Break your God damned back
She's crying and she's begging
For her sweet child's salvation
But God needs another baby
Stop at saint Peter's station
Gotta fresh coat of cyanide blue
And homicide white
Soak in turpentine wine
And the blood of Christ
Holler devil
Holler devil
Holler devil
Hear him cry
He didn't have to try
To break the frail soul of men
Keep treading on the heels of
Gods god damned plan
The rainbow serenade
Of the mid August heat
She's laying naked on the grass
The moon splashing on her feet
Rattles like chains
On the rusty shingle tin
So I take her to the river
Baptize her sin
They say they want faith
What they need is love
They say they want wisdom
Give 'em whiskey in the jug
They say they want truth
But it can't be found
Take the devil by the tail
And throw him to the ground
The wind starts shouting
Rain tip tapping
Lightning Sparks
Thunder booming and clapping
To the beat
So Holler devil
Hear him cry
