Way Down Inthe Lyrics

Tom Waits - Way Down In The Hole
---------   --------------------

``Well, I feel we should move right into the religious material.''

When you walk through the garden,
	You've gotta watch your back.
	Well, I beg you're pardon;
	Walk the straight and narrow track.

When you walk with Jesus,
	He's gonna save your soul.
	You've got to keep the Devil;
	Well, you've got to keep him down in the hole.

He's got the fire
	people, 
	he's got the fury
	at his command.

Oh, you don't have to worry
	Hold on to, hold on to... Jesus hand
	we'll all be safe from Satan
	when the thunder, when the thunder starts to roll.

We've got to keep the devil, 
	keep him on down
	down in the hole.

That red horned, lousy, low life, underneath our boots..
	Praise the Lord.
	I don't know what it is.
	Two dollar - that demonmiester
	Three dollar - that prince devil
	Just see if you can come up with a figure that matches your faith

He said, how much has Jesus done for you?
	And we got to go in,
	with our hydrolic system,
	and blast him out.

People, can I get an amen?
	All the angels, pledge God to sing;
	all about Jesus mighty sword.
	And they'll shield you with their wings
	People, they'll keep you close to the Lord.

Now don't pay heed to temptation,
	For his hands are so cold.
	You've got to keep the devil,
	keep him on down in the hole.

Down in the hole
Down in the hole
Down in the hole

People, I've got to speak about something... 
	Can I get an amen?
	Can I get an halaluja?
	Praise the lord.
	God bless you.

The Lord is a very very busy man.
	I'll do what I can.
	But Jesus is always going for the big picture...
	But he's always there to help us out of the little jams too.

Down in the hole
Down in the hole
Down in the hole
	Keep him down in the hold

You've got to keep the devil down in the hole
You've got to keep the devil down in the hole
Keep him on down in the hole
Down...
down, down, down mighty devil
I send you down below my boots.
down, down, filling my live with anger and strife
Go down mighty devil.
Find a place to live.
Down down down...
