Paul McCartney - Run Devil Run lyrics

Run devil run, the angels having fun

Making winners out of sinners better leave before it's done

When he gets through, he'll be coming after you

Listen what I'm saying to you

(Run) run devil run

By a swamp in Alabama in the cold in the damp

Sitting reading by the light of a kerosene lamp

Lives a holly roller with a mission on her mind

Got to spread the word to anybody she can find

You can hear her screaming any time in night or day

This is what she says to keep the demons away

Run devil run, the angels having fun

Making winners out of sinners better leave before it's done

When he gets through, he'll be coming after you

Listen what I'm saying to you

(Run) run devil run

Her brother and her sister said that she brought them down

Stepping on the bus that was heading to town

There they started drinking, they got into a fight

The sheriff introduced them to the jailhouse for a night

When the holy roller came to town to pay the bail

This is what she sang as she was leaving the jail

Run devil run, the angels having fun

Making winners out of sinners better leave before it's done

When he gets through, he'll be coming after you

Listen what I'm saying to you

(Run) run devil run, yeah

Well, by the middle of the summer they were back in the shack

Picking cotton for a living keep 'em on the right track

Visiting the neighbors trying to spread the good news

Singing gospel music with a hint of the blues

All of them determined to deliver the goods

Now you you hear the music coming out on the woods

Run devil run, the angels having fun

Making winners out of sinners better leave before it's done

When he gets through, he'll be coming after you

Listen what I'm saying to you

(Run) run devil run

Ah, you'd better

(Run) run devil run

You better run

(Run) run devil run
