[Lyric] Keep the Devil Down (North Mississippi Allstars)

Dirty Red's got his pocket full of them things
Standing on a corner in Holly Springs
The busted Dirty Red in Hickory Flats, y'all
Old Dirty is a soldier, Red ain't no rat

If you raise the devil
I can't keep the devil down
And now I've found the starry crown
If you raise the devil
I can't keep the devil down
Don't look him in the eye
The devil is a lie

Them things got me snapping like a fighting dog
Drinking gun powder from a rotten log
Old habits die hard, I'm dam so stuck in my way
It's the nature of the beast that one of these days

I'm a gonna raise the devil
I can't keep the devil down
If you've found the starry crown
And you raise the devil
I can't keep the devil down
Don't look him in the eye
The devil is a lie
If you raise the devil
I can't keep the devil down
And now I've found the starry crown
If you raise the devil
I can't keep the devil down
Don't look him in the eye
The devil is a lie
