Devil Makes Three, The - Help Yourself Lyrics

Love this band! They should be on the radio every where.

This song is falacious. The devil hasn't been to Hell yet. He roams the earth seeking who he may devour.

Rabble rabble rabble rabble rabble

Ok David Davidson

super la tune

Well the noise of his voice would've made our poor ears bleed

Even the devil was an angel before he tried to rush the throne
Lord, they threw him down in hell there all alone
And now he builds a castle out of the sinners' bones
You'd be angry too if you could never go home

Well now, I ain't no preacher, no preacher man's son
I done some bad things but I like to have my fun
A thousand ways to heaven, a thousand ways to hell
Well I say, the good Lord helps those that help themselves
So help yourselves now

Old man Nicodemus could not make his heart believe
He could see that Jesus had some tricks up his sleeve
Said now, Oh man, Jesus I can't do things your way
But I can see you work with somebody big, so I'm backing your play

Old man Nicodemus, his pockets they were deep
But on the day the Romans decided to put Jesus to sleep
Jesus could not care for money now or any such thing
Old Nicodemus paid to have Jesus just buried like a king

Well now, I ain't no preacher, no preacher man's son
I done some bad things but I like to have my fun
A thousand ways to heaven, a thousand ways to hell
Well I say, the good Lord helps those that help themselves
So help yourselves now

Our father art in heaven hallowed be thy name
Told Noah "build a boat" on the driest of days
And everybody in the neighborhood said old Noah was insane
I guess when the waters receded now, the truth was plain

Well now, I ain't no preacher, no preacher man's son
I done some bad things but I like to have my fun
A thousand ways to heaven, a thousand ways to hell
Well I say, the good Lord helps those that help themselves
So help yourselves now

Moses was a great man, parted the waters of the Red Sea
Down the road to Egypt, he made sure the slaves were free
Well he could speak to God, so they say, yes indeed
Well the noise of his voice would have made our poor ears bleed

Moses, he had an army I tell you all his own
They stood in circles outside his very home
And when the the Pharaohs got to killing they left old moses alone
But the Romans drove their nails through old Jesus' bones

Well now, I ain't no preacher, no preacher man's son
I done some bad things but I like to have my fun
Why they got Jesus now and not Moses, who can tell?
But they do say, the good Lord helps those that help themselves
So help yourselves now..

The only reason I went to the comments! Thank you sir

This is genius.

YOUR TELLING ME LOL

Awesome song! Great slide guitar...greater lyrics! Thanks Ms Anderson!!

I grew up in a religious household, and went to sunday school untill I was 18. Im not religious now, but theese biblical caracters, and stories still haunt my mind, after all theese years. I think about them with the same scepticism, just as in the song. Good to see, that someone else has the same kind of toughts, on the other side of the world.

Ash Quartz well I wouldn't go that far, but whatever suits you...

Being raised Roman catholic should be a crime for real that shit is criminal. All these religious hypocrites saying we need religion in school wouldn't say the same shit about Islam, it's the epitome of hypocrisy especially considering the track record of catholics and kids(should say something instead of and but I won't), it's the last thing we need!

...they left old Moses alone... But the Romans drove those nails through ol' Jesus' bones.

These guys see much. So few fans seem to understand, which I can imagine must be pretty discouraging.
