Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.
All the songs you used to sing to me
Would rock birds to sleep
I need you now so please somehow
Put rockets on your feet
Oh oh oh oh
Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.
Saw that dark cloud coming from a million miles away.
Oh how I've dreaded this god forsaken day.
Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.
Mama's been crying in the kitchen
Sister's been afraid of the dark.
I've been gathering the pieces of all these shattered hearts.
And I don't care where you go to
And I don't care where you land
But just get out of there daddy as fast as you can
Oh, Oh, Oh
Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.
Run Daddy run, run daddy run, run daddy run.
