(McCartney)
|
Run devil run, the angels having fun
|
Making winners out of sinners better leave before it's done
|
When he gets through, he'll be coming after you,
|
Listen what I'm saying to you Run... Run Devil Run
|
|
By a swamp in Alabama in the cold in the damp
|
Sittin reading by the light of a kerosene lamp
|
Lives a holly roller with a mission on her mind
|
Got to spread the word to anybody she can find
|
You can hear her screaming any time in night or day
|
This is what she says to keep the demons away
|
|
Run devil run, the angels having fun
|
Making winners out of sinners better leave before it's done
|
When he gets through, he'll be coming after you,
|
Listen what I'm saying to you Run... Run Devil Run
|
|
Her brother and her sister said that she brought them down
|
Steppin on the bus that was heading to town
|
There they started drinking, they got into a fight
|
The sheriff introduced them to the jailhouse for a night
|
When the holy roller came to town to pay the bail
|
This is what she sang as she was leaving the jail
|
|
Run devil run, the angels having fun
|
|
Making winners out of sinners better leave before it's done
|
When he gets through, he'll be coming after you,
|
Listen what I'm saying to you Run... Run Devil Run

|
Well by the middle of the summer they were back in the shack
|
Picking cotton for a livin keep 'em on the right track
|
Visiting the nieghbours trying to spread the good news
|
Singing gospel music with a hint of the blues
|
All of them determined to deliver the goods
|
Now you you hear the music comin out on the woods
|
|
Run devil run, the angel having fun
|
Making winners out of sinners better leave before it's done
|
When he gets through, he'll be coming after you,
|
Listen what I'm saying to you Run... Run Devil Run
|
|
Ah you'ld better Run... Run Devil Run
|
You better Run... Run Devil Run
|
