lyrics

Devil’s On His Way

The devil’s on his way
He’s just a speck on the horizon
He’s getting bigger every day
He says “You didn’t even try, son”
And now you have to pay
The devil’s on his way

You might try to hide
Or maybe get a gun
Ain’t nothing you can say
He’s got you on the run
He knows every time you lied
He’s seen everything you done

The devil’s on his way...

Your life’s going down the drain
Your world is on fire
I tried to set you straight
But I was preaching to the choir
There’s no one left to blame
He’s gonna be the driver

The devil’s on his way
He’s just a speck on the horizon
He’s getting bigger every day
He says “You didn’t even try, son”
Ain’t nothing you can say
The devil’s on his way

The devil’s on his way
The devil’s on his way
The devil’s on his way
The devil’s on his way

John Pippus Vancouver

"Reminiscent and harkening in spirit, in some ways, to Neil Young’s classic “Harvest,” Pippus and friends have made something much richer in tone and certainly more fitting for 2022.”
