"Up Jumped The Devil" lyrics - ROOMFUL OF BLUES

Up jumped the devil in a brand new Cadillac
Well, up jumped the devil in a brand new Cadillac
He was ten feet tall, and all dressed in black

Well, I looked at the devil, chills ran down my spine
Well, I looked at the devil, chills ran down my spine
I ain't ready to die, and I hope it ain't my time

Well, the devil he spoke, my bones began to shake
Yes, the devil he spoke, my bones began to shake
I said "Please Mr. Devil, have mercy for heaven's sake"

Well, the devil laughed, dressed like a natural man
Well, the devil he laughed, dressed like a natural man
With fire in his eyes, Lord fire in his hands

Up jumped the devil in a brand new Cadillac
Well, up jumped the devil in a brand new Cadillac
He said "I'm sorry buddy boy, it's time to take you back"
