Katzenjammer Hey Ho On The Devil's Back lyrics

As I was walking in the big black woods
Hey ho, the big black woods
I met the evil devil and he offered me a ride
Hey ho, he offered me a ride

He said, "You look tired, let me carry you a while"
Hey ho, on the devil's back
There's an evil little bastard hiding in his eye
Hey ho, of fire, flames and fry

Lord, I'm only human
I'm tired and I wanna go home
Let me ride on the devil's back
But save my soul, save my soul

The rain poured down from the gray sky above
Hey ho, the rain pissed down
But the devil, he went hasty and steady runnin' fast
Hey ho, oh, this could never last

And then he saw my home through the branches and the leaves
Hey ho, lay hidden by the trees
Inside my darling loved one and children, oh, so sweet
Hey ho, my children, oh, so sweet

Lord knows you're only human

You were tired and you wanted to go home
Pay me the soul of your one true love
Or you will never see your children again

Save my soul
Save my soul
Save my soul
Save my soul

Lord knows you're only human
You were tired and you wanted to go home
Pay me the soul of your one true love
Or you will never see your children again

Oh, Lord knows you're only human
You were tired and you wanted to go home
Pay me the soul of your one true love
Or you will never see your children again

Save my soul
Save my soul
Save my soul
