He said son I ain't never gonna tell you a story
Nothing but the truths gonna leave my lips
About the time I met old Lucifer
Let me tell you man his name ain't nick
Said oh my my oh dear lord
Sitting on my chair just a rocking on my porch
Saying oh my my oh dear lord
Never was I ever gonna let the devil take my soul
Well he promised me fame and he promised me glory
Promised me love but not for keeps
Told me I was gonna live for ever
Then he smiled and grinned his teeth
Oh my my my blood run cold
Eyes so dark you would swear they were coal
Saying oh my my oh dear lord
Never was I ever gonna let the devil take my soul
He said sign your name on a little piece of paper
Shake my hand and we'll seal this deal
Tell you friend you won't ever be lonely
Sit back and watch your dreams turn real
Saying oh my my oh dear lord
It crossed my mind but I didn't let it show
Saying oh my my oh dear lord
Never was I ever gonna let the devil take my soul
