The Devil Made Me do It
Esme Rose
Mama said don't talk to snakes
But hell, they speak so sweet
Said don't dance with what tempts you
But baby, look at my feet
Everything I ever wore
Fit better than my Sunday dress
God forgives, but not for free
And I don't pay in less
The devil made me do it, but I liked it
Did it twice just to be sure I spiced it
You call it wrong, I call it right
I ain't changing, I'll abide
Your preacher don't dance, but I bet he dreams
I've seen that halo with the seams
You pray in silk, I pray in sweat
Guess whose God ain't called me yet
The devil made me do it, but I liked it
He said sin's a song, then I've piped it
You call it shame, I call it style
I've been burning for a while
He said: Baby, come on down
And I said: Show me what's divine
He said: Pleasure: He said: Ours
I said: Mine
The devil made me do it, but I liked it
Did it twice just to be sure I spiced it
You call it sin, I call it free
Ain't no heaven built for me
He said hallelujah, I liked it
He said hallelujah, I liked it
He said hallelujah, I liked it
I've been burning for a while
Your preacher don't dance, but I bet he dreams
I've seen that halo with the seams
You pray in silk, I pray in sweat
Guess whose God ain't called me yet
The devil made me do it, but I liked it
He said sin's a song, then I've piped it
You call it shame, I call it style
I've been burning for a while
He said: Baby, come on down
And I said: Show me what's divine
He said: Pleasure: He said: Ours
I said: Mine
The devil made me do it, but I liked it
Did it twice just to be sure I spiced it
You call it sin, I call it free
Ain't no heaven built for me
He said hallelujah, I liked it
He said hallelujah, I liked it
He said hallelujah, I liked it
I've been burning for a while
Your preacher don't dance, but I bet he dreams
I've seen that halo with the seams
You pray in silk, I pray in sweat
Guess whose God ain't called me yet
The devil made me do it, but I liked it
He said sin's a song, then I've piped it
You call it shame, I call it style
I've been burning for a while
