My girl´s tired of the slum life, she don´t want to hustle no more
She´s dead set on the finer things in life and won´t waste her time
With me no more
My baby girl calls another man her daddy, I wasn´t around to see her grow
It´s hard as hell to see her with another family
But I chose the Devil´s road, I´ve gone and took the Devil´s road
Cold sweats, it’s the booze I hate myself
Won´t see your kids, your marriage´s gone to shit
but that’s the price you pay when you´re on the Devil´s road
I´m not welcome in my father´s house, I wouldn´t bend a knee
Now he´s all old and weak and I ain´t no kid
It won´t be long before I take it all for me, I´m going to take it all for me
Cold sweats, it’s the booze I hate myself
Won´t see your kids, your marriage´s gone to shit
but that’s the price you pay when you´re on the Devil´s road
If I may fall in a foreign land and the Lord wants to call me home
Burn me to a crisp like my damned soul and you scatter me on that fucking road
You throw me on that Devil´s road
Cold sweats, it’s the booze I hate myself
Won´t see your kids, your marriage´s gone to shit
but that’s the price you pay when you´re on the Devil´s road
You´ve got no business being on the Devil´s road
There´s a price to pay on the Devil´s road
