The Devil is Due

(Verse 1) In the twilight haze, on the edge of town, Where the shadows dance and the leaves fall down. I heard a whisper soft, like a sinner's prayer, "The Devil is due," floating in the air. (Chorus) The Devil is due, but my heart's in tune, With a melody sweet, under the silver moon. In this game of chance, where the stakes are high, I'll play my hand 'neath the starlit sky. (Verse 2) By the crossroad's sign, with a guitar in hand, I strummed the chords to a soulful band. The night was young, and the breeze was cool, "The Devil is due," but I'm nobody's fool. (Chorus) The Devil is due, but my love's on fire, Burning brighter than the devil's own pyre. I'll sing my song, with a heart so true, "The Devil is due," but I'll make it through. (Bridge) In the heart of night, where the spirits fly, I'll stand my ground, under the watchful eye. With a voice that carries, over hills and blues, I'll tell the world, "The Devil is due." (Verse 3) As dawn breaks free, from the grip of night, With the first ray of light, oh, what a sight. A new day begins, with hope anew, "The Devil is due," but I've paid my dues. "The Devil is due," but I've paid my dues. (Chorus/Outro) The Devil is due, but my soul's at rest, With every beat in my fearless chest. As the sun rises, in the morning dew, "The Devil is due," but I've made it through. "The Devil is due," but I've made it through. "The Devil is due," but I've made it through.
