The Devil Came Down to Texas Lyrics

The Devil went down to Texas

And made

Quite a splash

The Devil went down to Texas

To escape the past

The Devil went down to Texas

Where the heat is dry

The Devil went down to Texas

With lone stars in his eyes

But

What is fire

And brimstone

When you're

Sitting all alone on your

Smokey throne

Do you

Ever stop to

Consider why

When they all say I love you

You start to cry

The Devil came down to Texas

And realized quickly

That

Something else is missing in this

Soliloquy

Cause when you're

Used to getting nothing

You're suspicious of free

And if there's

One thing

That he has learned

Love don't

Come easily

But

What is fire

And brimstone

When you're

Sitting all alone on your

Smokey throne

Do you

Ever stop to

Consider why

When they all say I love you

You start to cry

Oh

The Devil came down to Texas

And saw

Many things

The cannon's blast

Ashes cast on their

Pretty wings

But when

Devil came to Texas

They realized

The love they missed

On their checklist

Was coming from inside

So they say

What is fire

And brimstone

When I'm

Sitting all alone on this

Broken throne

Do I

Ever stop to

Consider why

When they all say I love you

I start to cry

Oh

What is fire

And brimstone

When I'm

Sitting all alone on this

Broken throne

Do I

Ever stop to

Consider why

When they all say I love you

I start to cry
