Keep The Devil Down Lyrics

Dirty Red's got his pockets full of them thangs
Standin' on the corner in Holly Springs
They busted Dirty Red in Hickory Flatts, ya'll
Old Dirty is a soldier, Red ain't no rat

If you raise The Devil
Can't keep The Devil down
Now I've found The Starry Crown
If you raise The Devil
Can't keep The Devil down
Don't look 'em in the eye
The Devil is alive

Them thangs got me snappin' like a fightin' dog
Drankin' gun powder from a writhin' log
Oh (Unknown lyric????) have heart
I'm damn sure stuck in my ways
It's the nature of the beast one of these days

Im'a gonna raise The Devil
Can't keep The Devil down
If you've found The Starry Crown
If you raise The Devil
Can't keep The Devil down
Don't look 'em in the eye
The Devil is alive

If you raise The Devil
Can't keep The Devil down
Now I've found The Starry Crown
If you raise The Devil
Can't keep The Devil down
Don't look 'em in the eye
The Devil is alive
