[Verse 1]

Woke up in the mornin' feelin' mighty fine

Got two-finger whisky and a bottle of rye

Head swimmin' silent workin' to town

The job that pays is the one I found

Kick the job jump to the bar

Got tabs across town but I'm goin' far

Find a place they don't know me yet

Leave no scrub with lost profit


[Chorus]

Forget your immortal soul

You gotta drink to the devil down below


[Verse 2]

Got derringer sitting right by my side

My eyes set straight on my liquid bride

People always come and people always go

The drink never left me out there alone

Bartender says "It's time to pay"

Derringer speaks and I run away

Scramblin' through brambles in deep dark night

Hidden from the haze of their flashlights


[Chorus]

Forget your immortal soul

You gotta drink to the devil down below

To live and drink another day

You gotta run run


[Bridge]

Laying in cold wet mud n clay

Their torches gone to wait for day

Sip my flask and carry on

Fuck the town that I came from!


[Chorus]

Forget your immortal soul

You gotta drink to the devil down below
