Verse 1
Em
On Mardi
Gras day the Tennessee kid
E
Awoke in a puddle
Of his own worst fears
Em
Haunted by the ghost
E
Of vague remembrance
Em
E
No corporeal beast he could name
Em
So the kid invoked Lucifer
E
himself
Em
With oaths most grievously discourteous
E
Em
And charged him submit
Forthwith to atone
At the crossroads
Celebrated in song
E
Em
E
Come on
Em
E

E
Em
E
Em
E
Up jumped the devil
In the middle of the thoroughfare
"Who dares to utter my
most secret name?"
Em
He roared
E
But the kid yielded not so much as an inch
Em
To uncertainty
Steadfast he rejoined the enemy in kind
E
"Old patch then, satan, mephistopheles,
Em
Beelzebub
By any other name you ain't nothin'
A
Like a rose"
E
Em
Then he girded his loins for the
Ensuing onslaught
But the devil only shrugged
and the kid
A
Shuddered when he hissed he said
Em
Hey hey hey hey

The balance comes due someday
Em
Wait just one goddamn
minute cried the kid
From the cumberland
You never mention nothin'
A
'Bout no kinda note
E
Em
Just said - sign here - it's just a soul -
You'll never miss it
I ain't set foot in a church
since I was just
A
A little ol' thang
Em
Reckoned I was headed straight to hell
By the highway
No matter how long and how hard
That I prayed
A
E
So I might as well learn how to make
Em
This guitar talk
E
Somebody said ol' Bob Johnson
Em
Came down this way

E
And the monster raised himself up
Em
To the fullness of his stature
E
Black wings eclipsing a sanguine
A
Em
Mississippi moon
Behold behemoth the trampler
Of infidels,
E
Em
He who sweeps away nations
D
Em
With a flick of his tail
Theopolis, Agrrippa, Faustus, Paganini
A
Lurid and long is the tale of my prey
E
Em
Question not the ironclad bond
Of my surety
Set down here in blood
E
In your very own hand
Em
And the Tennessee kid cast an eye
On the list where his mark
Was indeed clearly inscribed
E
And he fell to his knees
But it was too late to pray
Em
E
And with his very last breath he did say
Em
Hey hey hey hey
E
Em
Hey hey hey hey
E
Hey hey hey hey
A
The balance comes due someday
