The Devil in hell ere told was chained
And thousand Years ne there remained
He neither complained n did he grOan.
But determined to start a hell of his own.
Where he could torment the souls OF men,
Without being chained in a prison pen.
So he ask the Lord if he had hand
Anything left when he made this land
The Lord said, Yes l have plenty on hand,
But left it down the Rio Grande
The fact is old boy, the stuff is poor,
l don't think you 1t in hell anymore"
But he Devil down look at the truck
And said II he took it gift he struck,
For after examining it carefully and WELL
He concluded the place TOO drv for hell.
So in order to get it off His hand
The Lord promised the Devil to wafer the land
For he had some water, Father some dregs
regular cathartic and smeed like bad eggs
Hence the trade closed, the deed was given, -
And the Lord went back bis home in heaven;
The Devil said to himself have all that is needed
To make good hell" and hence he succeeded
He began by putting thorns all over the trees,
And mixed up the sand with millions of heas;
He scattered tarantulas along the roads,
Put thorns on cactus, and horns on the toads
He heightened the horns of the Texas steers
And put an addition to the rabbits ears;
He put little devil in the broncho steed
And poisoned the feet of The centpede
The rattlesnakes bites you. the scorpion stings,
The mosquito delights you with his buzzine wings;
The sand burs pervail and do the ants,
And those who sit down need half soes on their pants
The Devil then said that through the land
He'd arrange to keep up the Devils own brand.
And all should be Mavericks unless thew bore
Marks scratches, of bites thorns by the score
The heat in the summer is one hundred and ten,
Too hot for the Devil and to hot for men,
The wild boar roams through the black chaparral;
IT'S hell of place that he has for hell
