The Devil to Pay

Verse 1
One hot windy night, she drove into sight, in a red-hot four-by-four.
The words, "I'm no saint," in bright red paint were dripping from the door.
Decked out in red leather as hot as the weather she said this was my lucky day.
She said, “Come on. Let's play," in a Devilish way. It seemed I'd have the Devil to pay.

Chorus
The Devil to pay. The Devil to pay.
It seemed I'd have the Devil to pay.

Verse 2
She’d make me a deal. She’d do what I willed. Her eyes flashed like red-hot coals.
“No, I’m not an angel. They can be dull,” She said like she read my soul.
“Throw caution to the wind and I’ll be your friend. Ecstasy would come your way.
Are you out or in?” She said with a grin. I knew I’d have the Devil to pay.

Chorus
The Devil to pay. The Devil to pay.
I knew I'd have the Devil to pay.

Bridge
I knew the price I'd pay if I was gonna' play.
She said she didn't want any souls.
My heart skipped a beat. She swept me off my feet.
I said, "Let's rock and roll."

Verse 3
My heart was frantic in my chest. You can guess the rest. She swept me off of my feet.
I'd sold my heart. She'd done her part, but I’d still have the Devil to pay.

Chorus
The Devil to pay. The Devil to pay.
I knew I'd have the Devil to pay.

Tag
All I can say is, "Wow! Who in Hell was that gal,
And where in Hell is she now?"
The Devil to pay. The Devil to pay.
I'd like to find the Devil to pay.
I'd like to find the Devil to pay.
It seemed I’d have the Devil to pay.
