Chorus: E Run devil run, the angel's having fun Making winners out of sinners, better leave before he's done B7 When he gets through he'll be coming after you E A G Listen what I'm saying to you, run A E Run devil run E By a swamp in Alabama in the cold and the damp Sitting reading by the light of a kerosene lamp A7 Lives a holy roller with a mission in her mind E Got to spread the word to anybody she can find B7 You can hear her screaming any time of night or day E This is what she says to keep the demons away Chorus Her brother and her sister said that she brought them down Stepping on a bus that was heading for town There they started drinking, they got into a fight The sheriff introduced them to the jailhouse for a night When the holy roller came to town to pay the bail This is what she sang as she was leaving the jail Chorus Well by the middle of the summer they were back on the shack Picking cotton for a living, keeping on the right track Visiting the neighbours, trying to spread the good news Singing gospel music with a hint of the blues All of them determined to deliver the goods Man, you hear the music coming out of the woods Chorus A G You better run A E Run devil run You better run Run devil run | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA A7 E G B7 Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
