Lyrics

THE DEVIL DON?T CHANGE
Cliff Hagen/Leland Harding III/Jarett Larson


Well what?s this hurtin?, that?s what you may ask
Cuz you can see it my eyes comin? from my past
Well friend grab yourself a chair and I?ll share my life with you
If you promise not to let my sins get the best of you
Cuz I?ve taken every path I know to get on the right road
But it seems I just get sidetracked the further down I go

Cuz you can?t live like an angel and run with the night
You can?t sit on the fence between the wrong and right
It?s all or nothin?, this I know is true
If you dance with the Devil, the Devil don?t change
The Devil changes you

Last night I tried to help my self but I let the hurtin? in
I found shelter in a bottle, but I couldn?t get out again
So I took that bottle and I smashed it on the shelf
I could not find the answer in and of myself
And I remembered what my mamma said when I was just a child
She said, the Devil?s gonna catch ya if you don?t stop runnin? wild

Cuz you can?t live like an angel and run with the night
You can?t sit on the fence between the wrong and right
It?s all or nothin?, this I know is true
If you dance with the Devil, the Devil don?t change
The Devil changes you

So I hit my knees and asked the Lord forgiveness and for help
And then I told the Devil to go straight back to Hell

Cuz you can?t live like an angel and run with the night
You can?t sit on the fence between the wrong and right
It?s all or nothin?, this I know is true
If you dance with the Devil, the Devil don?t change
The Devil changes you
