Devil's Tongue - The Elders

Help me God, to kill the Devil’s tongue

The sins of father, sins of the son

You really had a plan when you cursed every man

With everything he had to have but one

A bullet that could kill the Devil’s tongue

They say what goes in is bad enough, but what comes out is death

Let’s hunt it down and kill it before it takes another breath

It’ll sew the seeds of darkness, sew the seeds of doubt

And block the truth from ever getting out

If you had a chance to take it back you’d lay your money down

With a fighting chance to offer up forgiveness by the pound

We’ve all been down that street before and up that creek as well

Just running from what we can’t ever tell

So help me God, to kill the Devil’s tongue

The sins of father, sins of the son

You really had a plan when you cursed every man

With everything he had to have but one

A bullet that could kill the Devil’s tongue

Some times she’s just a whisper with whiskey on her breath

Like a smoke ring through the key hole creeping in like death

Sometimes she is a fog horn, sounding in the dark

Drowning all the darkness in her heart

So help me God, to kill the Devil’s tongue

The sins of father, sins of the son

You really had a plan when you cursed every man

With everything he had to have but one

A bullet that could kill the Devil’s tongue
