lyrics

Nineteen going on ninety-four
That's what you were when I scraped you up off the floor
You couldn't believe just what you saw
'Cause you'd been begging at the devil's door

Saying please, oh please
Release me
I can't live like this no more
I just want to be free

(You get intoxicated and you are under the influence. The influence of what? Demonic Spirits!)

I tried to help you save your soul
I tried to dig you out of that dark, dark hole
I soon realised all your love was chemical
And that you had an old deal with the devil

You said to me please, oh please
Just leave me
One hundred souls have tried an failed before
Wont you believe me?

(You get under the influence of the devil. you listen to the devil on your music. Hey!)

Now one of these days, your old friend, the devil, is gonna drag you down
Maybe the same day your white medicine turns a strange golden-brown
And that day, Hell will be your new town
And, yes, you will be missed when you're not around

And I'll say, Lucifer
Please release him
For he was just a child
When his life was thrown into a world of sin

He used to be a good boy
'til one dark, dark day
The day all the goodness he once held
Was stolen away

And he only wanted the feeling of love
So please, if he's gotta go
Oh please
Have mercy on his soul
