Hell in Texas
--------------------
Oh, the Devil in hell, they say he was chained,
And there for a thousand years he remained.
He never complained, no, nor did he roam,
But decided he'd start up a hell of his own.
He'd start up a hell of his own,
Where he could torment the souls of men
Free from the walls of his prison den.
So he asked the Lord if he had any sand
Left over from making this great land,
Left over from making this land.
The Lord said, "Why, yes! I have plenty on hand.
It's way down south on the Rio Grande.
But, I got to be honest, the stuff is so poor
That I wouldn't use if for hell anymore, it won't do for hell anymore."
So the Devil went down to look over his truck.
It came as a gift, so he figured he's stuck,
And when he examined it careful and well,
He decided the place was too dry for hell,
Well, the Lord, he just wanted the stuff off hands,
He promised the Devil he'd water the land.
He had some old water that wasn't no use,
A rancid old puddle that stunk like the deuce,
I tell you, it stunk like the deuce.
The Lord, he was crafty, the deal was arranged,
He laughed to himself as the deed was exchanged,
But the Devil was ready to go with his plan
To make up a hell, and so he began,
To make up his hell, he began.
He scattered tarantulas over the roads,
Put thorns on the cactus and horns on the toads,
He sprinkled the sand with millions of ants,
So if you sit down, you need soles on your pants.
He lengthened the horns of the steer,
And added an inch to the jack rabbit's ear;
He quickened the buck of the bronco steed,
And poisoned the feet of the centipede;
He put water puppies in all of the lakes,
And under the rocks, he put poisonous snakes,
He mixed all the dust up with ticks and fleas,
Hung thorns on the brambles and over the trees,
And after he fixed things so thorny and well,
He said, "Hmm, I'll be damned if this don't beat hell!"
Then he flapped up his wings and away he flew,
Vanished from Earth in a blaze of blue.
All who remained in that climate soon bore
Cuts, bites, stings, and blisters galore.
The wild boar roams in the black chaparral
It's a hell of a place that we've got for you all.
The heat in the summer's a-hundred and ten,
Not bad for the Devil, but way too hot for men.
The snake bites you, scorpions sting,
The mosquito delights you by buzzing his wings.
Devil's red pepper planted beside the brooks;
The Mexicans use them in all they cook.
Just dine with a Greaser and then you will shout,
"I've got hell on the inside and out! "
So, if you ever end up in there, dude.
Let me know if it's true! |
