Up the Devil's Pay - Old 97's

Up the Devil's Pay Lyrics

I'm gonna tend a bad fire until you come around
I'd sing you real live love songs
If I could get the feeling downI want to make you happy but the devil's out my way
So I'll just pack up everything
Roll it out and up the devil's payI want to cause a bad scene but I gotta change my ways
I want to hear your sound again
I want to see you 'round somedayI want to make you happy but the devil's out my way
So I'll just pack up everything
Roll it out and up the devil's payAnd it seems no one can comfort me
To take me from this station where I'm at
'Cause the things I love are leaving me
And it's taking every single piece
It's a grade-A mess and it's cutting teeth
It's a big black wind that's blowing back of meI'm gonna roll up everything into a big red sun
Boil til the room's insane
Wave my rattles on and onI want to make you happy but the devil's out my way
So I'll just pack up everything
Roll it out and up the devil's pay
