The devil's in the water now who's gonna save the day?
He's coming back to New Orleans and he's got hell to raise
He's painting all the water black and he's soaking up the sea
So help us please
Honey it's not alright
The devil's in paradise
Who's gonna save our souls
When your gamblin' with oil and gold
Well I hope that
He saves my soul cause I dipped my feet in the holy water
Gamblin'
Oil and gold every step I take it just keeps getting harder
An old man took his fishing boat and he tried to save the seas
He said he saw 11 ghosts so he gave his final plea
He said if there's a god above, tell him we're in need and help us please
Honey it's not alright
The devil's in paradise
Who's gonna save our souls
When your gamblin' with oil and gold
Well I hope that
He saves my soul cause I dipped my feet in the holy water
Gamblin'
Oil and gold every step I take it just keeps getting harder
This is the pain we're living now and I'm pushing it down pushing it down
I only got one mother, I think i'll try to learn to love her
Honey it's not alright
The devil's in paradise
Who's gonna save our souls
When your gamblin' with oil and gold
Well I hope that
He saves my soul cause I dipped my feet in the holy water
Gamblin'
Oil and gold every step I take it just keeps getting harder
