keep the devil down - keep left lyrics

i met a man just the other day who told me he was jesus christ
he was teaching his religion to a wino and a pigeon and chomping on a bag of rice
i said “hey, j.c. it appears to me you may be on the wrong side of town.”
he said “don’t you worry sonny, i ain’t looking for your money. i’m just trying to keep the devil down.”

standing in an alley and i’m talkin’ some trash with a little girl named lorraine
she was dollied all up like a candy store but she didn’t want to know my name
she said she found out when she was only 15
how to turn a smile into a frown
i said “woman don’t you look at me and think i mean, i’m just trying to keep the devil down.”
if you got something wanna say to mе, just talk
otherwise you ain’t gotta make a sound
girl if you think you’vе had enough of me just walk, walk, walk
can’t you see i’m busy trying to keep the devil down

cross*eyed charlie’s got the demon bad
he got a hundred dollar habit a day
he don’t remember who he used to be
he don’t remember any other way

i said “hey charlie, tell me what do you see?”
he said “i guess i’ll have to see you around. i got people to do and things to be, and i gotta to keep the devil down.”

gotta to keep the devil down
gotta to keep him down
