By a swamp in Alabama in the cold in the damp.
E
Sittin reading by the light of a kerosene lamp.
A
Lives a holly roller with a mission on her mind.
E
Got to spread the word to anybody she can find.

Run devil run, the angels having fun,
E
making winners out of sinners better leave before it's done.

Her brother and her sister said that she brought them down.
Steppin on the bus that was heading to town.
There they started drinking, they got into a fight.

Well, by the middle of the summer they were back in the shack.
Picking cotton for a livin keep 'em on the right track.

All of them determined to deliver the goods,
now you hear the music coming out on the woods.
Run devil run, the angels...
E A-G- A E
You'ld better ru-un. Run devil run.
