| There was a time I tried to kill a man
|
| Just for looking at me wrong
|
| Anger so strong I couldn’t stop myself
|
| I was killing myself one shot at a time
|
| Going insane from the pain
|
| The women and the wine
|
| But I finally hit bottom in an alley way
|
| Hell wasn’t but a breath away
|
| So I hit my knee’s in the street and begged god for mercy
|
| Last night I told the devil where to go
|
| You know heaven’s got my soul
|
| Ain’t gonna listen to his lies no more
|
| Last night I told the devil where to go
|
| I could have saved myself a lot of hurting time
|
| If I’d have just listened to my momma
|
| Everytime she cried
|
| Well I was way to lost in a sinner’s haze
|
| Burning up the days
|
| Just another young man who had lost his way
|
| Now it finally makes sense what the preacher said
|
| When he said son you don’t wanna wake up dead
|
| And find yourself alone in the fires of hell
|
| Yeah everybody
|
| Last night I told the devil where to go
|
| You know heaven’s got my soul
|
| Ain’t gonna listen to his lies no more
|
| Last night I told the devil where to go
|
| Now when you hear that demon knocking at your door
|
| You just tell him you dont want his kind round here no more
|
| Cause if you wanna love if you wanna live
|
| If you wanna be free you can’t forget and forgive
|
| You gotta kick him in the teeth and do exactly
|
| Do exactly what I did
|
| Yeah last night I told the devil where to go
|
| You know heaven’s got my soul
|
| Ain’t gonna listen to his lies no more
|
| Last night I told the devil
|
| Last night I told the devil
|
| Last night I told the devil
|
| Last night I told the devil
|
| Last night I told the devil
|
| I told the devil where to go |
