THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT -Words and Music by Allan Corby © 2022


It's easier to go down to hell
Cause the road up to heaven's so steep (so steep)
I'm gonna need a fast elevator CHORUS
To keep the flames of hell from me
Drinkin' and a- smokin and a-running round with women
Gettin' in trouble all the time
You can take an escalator down to hell
If you really wanna have a hot time
You see the devil made me do it (the devil made him do it)
I said the devil made me do it (the devil made him do it)
You may say I lost my way
But the devil made me do it and that's all I have to say
The devil made me do it, (the devil made him do it)
The devil made me do it, (the devil made him do it)
The devil made me do it and that's all I have to say

I put the pedal to the metal I was doin 95 VERSE 1
The cops were on my tail to get me dead or alive
Then my tire blew out, so I hear tell
And I woke with a headache in a tiny jail cell
The judge said, "Son, you are very a bad seed,
So, tell me boy, just how do you plead?"
Well, Judge...(spoken)

CHORUS

Judge said , " Son ,I have seen you here before VERSE 2
You seem to make a habit out of breakin every law
So, before I sentence you to a lifetime in the slammer
Just tell me why you did it though it really doesn't matter"
( I said, "Judge...) spoken

CHORUS

That's my story and I'm stickin to it. CODA
