Dear John Letter (to the devil) — текст песни (Keith Green)

Oh I used to love you
But now that`s hard to do
`Cause I got some information
`Bout the evil things at night that you do
Now the whole thing is through (we`re through)
Oh you`re such a devil
How`d you get me to believe you were true

Oh my momma warned me
And how my daddy cried
The day I left my home
You said you`d always keep me satisfied
But oh how you lied (you lied)
Well I should have heard my momma`s words
But then I guess I had to much pride (original sin)

First Chorus
I used to lie awake at night
And see your face on the ceilin`
What a bad a feelin` I have
When I think of how you almost got me
In the ways of the world
In the ways of the world

My so-called friends said I misjudged you
My anger`s all in vain
But I`m afraid you got to them
Before I had a chance to explain
And it caused me such pain (ouch!)
`Cause they were such good friends of mine
But now you`ve got them playin` you game (you creep)

First Chorus

Well I believe in Jesus
And what he said he`s gonna do
He`ll put an apple in your lyin mouth
And cook you in a sulfer stew
One that`ll never be through
(Is it soup yet? No)
Ah, but if he hadn`t rescued me
Then I`d be down there cookin` too
Oh if Jesus hadn`t rescued me
Then I`d be cookin` right next to you

Second Chorus
I used to lie awake at night
And see your face on the ceilin`
What a great feelin` I have
When I think of how you`re gonna get yours
At the end of the world
At the end of the world
Oh at the end of the world
