  			Run devil run, the angels having fun 
making winners out of sinners better leave before it's done. 
  B 
When he gets through, he'll be coming after you, 
 A                             A-G- A               E 
listen what I'm saying to you ru-un.  Run devil run. 

 E 
By a swamp in Alabama in the cold in the damp. 
 E 
Sittin reading by the light of a kerosene lamp. 
 A 
Lives a holly roller with a mission on her mind. 
 E 
Got to spread the word to anybody she can find. 
 B 
You can hear her screaming any time in night or day. 
  E 
This is what she says to keep the demons away. 

 E 
Run devil run, the angels having fun, 
 E 
making winners out of sinners better leave before it's done. 
  B 
When he gets through, he'll be coming after you,  
 A                             A-G- A               E 
listen what I'm saying to you ru-un.  Run devil run. 

Her brother and her sister said that she brought them down. 
Steppin 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... 

Inter: A  E  A  B  (2x) 

Well, by the middle of the summer they were back in the shack. 
Picking cotton for a livin keep 'em on the right track. 
Visiting the nieghbours 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 hear the music coming out on the woods. 

Run devil run, the angels... 
 E             A-G- A            E 
You'ld better ru-un.  Run devil run. 
 E             A-G- A            E 
You'ld better ru-un.  Run devil run.
