The Devil was lonely,
His followers few;
The folks couldn't stand
For his horrible stew.
So he cleaned up the mess
And started cafes,
And offered each person
Free car fare both ways.
So when prohibition
Took all OF our wine,
Folks rushed to the devil
To have a good time.
Thus this old phrase,
"GOne to the Devil" was brewed,
But those who have gone
Always come back half-stewed.
