The Jazz Butcher - Walk With the Devil lyrics

St. Petersburg on Saturday Waiting for a train to take me out of here It's not the first time I've been standing in the mashed potato snow Word reached me this morning, you were planning on leaving There's just one thing for me to say before you go You can walk with the devil, you can walk into the sun You can walk with the angels, won't be seen You can walk through the border, you can walk on down the hall You can walk with the devil But you'll never walk again with me We had such a subtle thing We could turn the kitchen into Singapore Like a rickshaw ride On a number 109 to Mandalay You could even make the traffic stop Oh, just by standing in the street I can't explain, we could have won on points But the devil had to carry you away You can dine with the devil With Errol Flynn at fifty by your side And Tallulah f**ing Bankhead at your feet You can dine with the devil, you can follow him down there You can dine with the devil But you'll find the wine he serves is far too sweet There's no point, you're almost gone 'Coz the devil doesn't wait for tawdry last goodbyes And that's okay, they're stupid anyway My life was getting like a zoo Hundreds and thousands of half-mad people They're all dead already And the angels only look the other way Go walk with the devil, yeah go where you please 'Cause to walk with the devil comes free You can walk with the devil, you can walk on down the hall You can walk with the devil When you could have been walking with me You can walk with the devil, you can walk into another life Though I doubt you're gonna like the things you see You can walk with the devil Though for me it's much too much too late You can walk with the devil But you'll never ever walk again with me
