Mama bring me water
The Devil's at the door
The flames of Hell are burning
I'm shaken to my core
I'm shaken to my core, ma
Shaken to my core
Won't you bring me water
The Devil's at the door
I wish I was in 'bama
With my Dixie May
I'd sing her songs of Cottonland
All through the sunny day
I'd sing her songs of Cottonland
All through the sunny day
Now the Devil's at the door
And that's all I can say
There ain't no time for prayers, ma
God don't hear no more
Hurry bring me water
The Devil's at the door

Mama bring me water
The Devil's at the door
The hounds of Hell are howling
I'm shaken to my core
I'm shaken to my core, ma
Shaken to my core
Won't you bring me water
The Devil's at the door
I wish I was in 'bama
With my Allie Mae
I'd sing her songs of Dixieland
All through the sunny day
I'd sing her songs of Dixieland
All through the sunny day
Now the Devil's at the door
And here is where I lay
There ain't no time for prayers, ma
God don't hear no more
Hurry bring me water
The Devil's at the door
