Down by the Devil's Creek
Where the water runs so cold
They say the souls of the lost
Lie buried deep in the fold
Oh, the Devil's Creek, it calls your name
Whispering tales of fire and flame
Once you cross that shadowed line
Your soul ain't ever coming back this time
They say a man went walking
With a heart as black as coal
He made a deal with the shadows
And the creek swallowed him whole
Oh, the Devil's Creek, it calls your name
Whispering tales of fire and flame
Once you cross that shadowed line
Your soul ain't ever coming back this time
They say a man went walking
With a heart as black as coal
He made a deal with the shadows
And the creek swallowed him whole
Oh, the Devil's Creek, it calls your name
Whispering tales of fire and flame
Once you cross that shadowed line
Your soul ain't ever coming back this time
The trees they bend and shiver
When the night wind starts to wail
For they've seen the Devil's work
And they've heard the lost souls' tale
So if you find yourself alone
Near the waters dark and deep
Turn away, don't heed the call
Or forever you'll be lost to sleep
Oh, the Devil's Creek, it calls your name
Whispering tales of fire and flame
Once you cross that shadowed line
Your soul ain't ever coming back this time
The creek runs silent, cold, and black
But its grip will never slack
For every soul that meets its fate
The Devil's Creek will patiently wait
The creek runs silent, cold, and black
But its grip will never slack
For every soul that meets its fate
The Devil's Creek will patiently wait
Oh, the Devil's Creek, it calls your name
Whispering tales of fire and flame
Once you cross that shadowed line
Your soul ain't ever coming back this time
Down by the Devil's Creek
Where the water runs so cold
They say the souls of the lost
Lie buried deep in the fold
