I woke up this morning our of breath   With death calmly sleeping right on my chest   I just out of bed and said,   "Go away, go away."      I ain't never seen nothing so scary and dark   Pulled myself right out of his claws   But he followed me where light walked with me   Go away, go away      And he said   You ain't got nothing coming to you, child   No, you ain't got nothing coming to you, child   So follow me where the sleepless lie   Oh, follow me into the wild      So I rain in the shower to baptize myself   Figure the devil went follow me there   But what do I know, he's standing right here   Go away, go away      No spiritual healing will hurt him away   Like bee stings, my eyelids turning all gray   Next thing I know, he's holding my hand   Go away, go away      So I rain in the shower to baptize myself   Figure the devil went follow me there   But what do I know, he's standing right here   Go away, go away (x2)
