Let me tell you the story, about John P. Doe
He tried to be famous, but he sank so low
He had no talent, he couldn't even sing
But he wanted to play the blues, like B.B. King
He met the Devil, down at the crossroads
Devil say, "I'll make you famous, if you give me your soul"
He stood their shaking, not knowing what to do
A fortune full of royalties, if the Devils words were true
What would it cost, to give up your soul
And spend eternity , with the Devil down below

He thought to himself, that he'd like to see
Just how the Devil, wanted to proceed
Devil sat him down, taught him to play
All the blues chords, from B to A
Devil taught him all, of his guitar licks
From five finger picking, to free-style tricks
Then the Devil pulled out, a suitcase full of blues
About hard luck stories, and sad songs too
They were the best blues songs, that he'd ever heard
They'd tear at your heart, and shatter your nerves
Songs about people, with their hopes so high
Who bet all of their fortune, but their well ran dry

Songs that were tender, make an old man cry
Songs with dirty words, that your Mom won't like
Songs about mercy, and songs about joy
Songs about the struggles, between the girls and the boys
Songs about courage, songs about hope
Songs about the Angels, and the Devil down below

He signed the Devil's contract, didn't know if he should
Devil say he be more famous, than Johnny B. Goode
He hit the road, with that suitcase full of blues
About hard luck stories, and sad songs too
He sang them songs, put them on the internet
Within one week, he had fifty million hits
He toured across the country, from the west coast to the east
From up in Minnesota, to down in New Orleans
One day the Devil, came looking for his soul
John told the Devil, I don't have it no more
Cause every time he played, in all of those shows
He gave it all his heart, and a bit of his soul

After all those years, of performing on the road
He wore out his heart, and gave away his soul
Devil felt sorry, cause John was sincere
Devil said, "I'll be back, in twenty five years"
The moral of this story, to the young and the old
Don't bargain with the Devil, or you'll lose your soul
