The broken and fallen
dangled souls been sent to burn
Nowadays they've been calling
telling me soon gonna be my turn
Head down walk with reason
know that when the daylight dies
Gonna have to face my demons
life of sin and a life of lies

(Now I know)
The devil's gonna come when the sun goes down
(Now I know)
The devil's gonna come when the sun goes down

Gonna lay by the river
gonna rest my eyes
Cause I know this time tomorrow
there ain't gonna be blue skies
I walk a lonely mile
so many years I roam
I'm sinking slowly so low
Lord won't you take me home

(Now I know)
The devil's gonna come when the sun goes down
(Now I know)
The devil's gonna come when the sun goes down

Now I'm buried in a shallow grave
by the riverside
Knocked off with a granite stone
and the day I died
Let down for no good reason
chose to walk the way I did
And now whatever I see
comin' up ahead

(Now I know)
The devil's gonna come when the sun goes down
(Now I know)
The devil's gonna come when the sun goes down
(Now I know)
The devil's gonna come when the sun goes down
(Now I know)
The devil's gonna come when the sun goes down

The devil's gonna come when the sun goes down

The devil's gonna come when the sun goes down
