The Devil is nipping at our heals Knowing that his time is near He'll take what he has What little is left Down the path of destruction and fear
The Devil has his hand out for a song Inviting the world weary to sing along He hasn't much time Begging all for a ride Hoping your going where he's going
The Devil's got a wink in his eye Keeping those from the great by and by As he shows off his stuff More often than enough Keeping himself out of the light
The Devil knows his time is nigh See you later alligator, bye, bye You can go straight to hell Where the folks know you well Skating away on the lake of fire
