Spoken: You recall Big Red? He spent most of his life out on the road Searching for that enigmatic devil slide, but he could never forget What Muddy said. Glass is best. We was on that midnight train, driving to San Sebastian Spain When he took a dead bottle of Beaujolais, Slipped his ring finger into it's neck and broke off the remains. Then he looked at me with a gleam in his eyes and said, "Eric, look out here comes the devil slide".
The devil's on the loose Waving his brand new pitch fork He's still looking good He's been polishing his horns In order to bleed souls Even those who have never been born
The devil's on the loose Riding in a brand new car With a suit and tie and a Japanese cellular He goes to church and prays But he knows that faith don't come in jar
The devil's on the loose Stirring his cauldron of bliss And we taste the flavor Not knowing we're already a part of this
At the doors of every house The dogs begin to bark The devil's on the loose and his eyes Can see in the dark He's going to give you double of everything You never asked for
The devil's on the loose Excited to have a new start He preserves his tail And loans out his two big hearts One to keep you busy And the other to tear you apart
The devil's on the loose And we're stuck in the middle of his game We're talking it over But nobody knows what they're saying So let's make love baby I'll see you some old sunny day
