Devil's Feet

When I was a child a story was told About the devil and a girl oh so bold He offered her riches, a fortune of gold And lovers abound But she lifted her soul She lifted her soul clean oh clean And like the story was told On a dark country road The same man appeared to me But I reached I reached Through the rain to the devil's feet Now twenty years later to the place I return Where I scorned the angels for a pa*sion that burned There set in the tree a knot twisted and turned The face of a creature hell bound So long ago could my mind have played jokes on me, oh please As darkness sets in unavoidable sin The truth I try not to believe That I reached I reached Through the rain to the devil's feet
