O My O My  What a wretched life  I was born on the day  That my poor mother died  I was cut from her belly  With a stanley knife  My daddy did a jig  With the drunk midwife    Who's that younder all in flames  Dragging behind him a sack of chains  Who's that younder all in flames  Up jumped the Devil and he staked his claim    O poor heart  I was doomed from the start  Doomed to play  The villians part  I was the baddest Johnny  In the apple cart  My blood was blacker  Than the of a dead nun's heart    Who's that milling on the courthouse steps  Nailing my face to the hitching fence  Who's that milling on the courthouse steps  Up jumped the Devil and off he crept    O no O no  Where could I go  With my hump of trouble  And my sack of woe  To the digs and deserts of Mexico  Where my neck was safe from the lynching rope    Who's that younder laughing at me  Like I was the brunt of some hilarity  Who's that younder laughing at me  Up jumped the Devil 1, 2, 3    Ha-Ha Ha Ha  How lucky we were  We hit the cathouse  And sampled their whares  We got as drunk  As a couple of Czars  One night I spat out  My lucky stars    Who's that dancing on the jailhouse roof  Stamping on the ramping with a cloven hoof  Who's that dancing on the jailhouse roof  Up jumped the Devil and said "Here is your man and I got a proof"    O no don't go O no  O slow down Joe  The righteous part  I straight as an arrow  Take a walk  And you'll find it too narrow  Too narrow for the likes of me    Who's that hanging from the gallow tree  His eyes are hollow but he looks like me  Who's that swinging from the gallow tree  Up jumped the Devil and took my soul from me    Down we go Down we go Down we go  The Devil and me Down we go down down down  Hell fire and flames Down we go Down we go  To Eternity Down we go We go down down down  Down we go we go down down down  Down we go the Devil and me to Eternity  We go down down down down down ad inferno
