The Devil Sat Down And Cried

(Hallelujah)
 Brothers and sisters, the Devil's after you
 Only if you've got religion, there's nothing he can do
 Oh, brothers and sisters, don't let him get you down
 Swing out with hallelujah and spread the word around
 A sinful man was booked to go
 The Devil was a-waiting down below
 But something happened just before he died
 He had a vision, saw the light
 He told the Devil, "Go fly a kite"
 And so, the Devil sat down and cried
 Oh, the Devil sat down and cried
 For the sinner had hurt his pride
 Just to show 'twas no mistake
 He told the Devil, "Go jump in the lake!"
 And so, the Devil sat down and cried, cried
 Oh, the Devil sat down and cried
 This man was filled with misery
 The Devil said, "You belong to me
 Just wait until you cross the great divide"
 The sinner answered, "Is it so?"
 Then told the Devil the place where to go
 And so, the Devil sat down and cried
 Oh, the Devil sat down and cried
 He was ever so mortified
 Whether folks believe or not
 There was the Devil in a heck of a spot
 And so, the Devil sat down and cried, cried
 Oh, the Devil sat down and cried
