Better the Devil I Know

My mother was a witch
My father the moon
I was only five
When I met my doom
I had no future
I had no past
Just living for the moment
I am the first and I'm the last

I cannot buy redemption
Riding down this perdition road
I have paved my way to hell
Better the devil I know

I made an offer to the man
Playing guitar by the road
I fell for the blues he played
And Robert Johnson was his name
Oh preacher tell me please
If there's any hope for me
To turn profound pain
Into burning divine flame

I cannot buy redemption
Riding down this perdition road
I have paved my way to hell
Better the devil I know
