The Devil’s out ta get'cha with his cunning, crafty sword
he wants to bring you down and destroy your last reward
Deception is his tool of trade, he’ll take you by the hand
and lead you down a rocky road
which turns to sinking sand
He’ll grasp at any tiny crack, so guard your open door
he’ll slip right in so silently and plant his sinful lure
He’s famous for his cleverness, renowned for all his lies
and as he leads you off to hell
he’ll laugh at your sad cries
Be always watchful, every day
stay close to God and watch and pray
old Satan, dear, is out ta get'cha
don’t let him have the final say.
Yes, the Devil’s out ta get'cha,
so you’d better watch your back
He’ll promise you the world and more
and say you’ll have no lack
He’ll temp you down forbidden roads
with thoughts of wealth and fame
he’ll whisper in your ear and say
he’ll protect your “well known” name
After you’ve partaken of illicit, secret fun,
he’ll open the protecting door,
revealing you as a “fallen one”
He’ll laugh with glee as all your friends
tell others of your shame
and boast to all his demons
how he “got'cha” and ruined your name
There’s only one way to escape
his evil, tempting lair
Walk with Jesus every day,
And talk with Him in prayer.
