Says I

From 1938, The Devil With The Devil by Larry Clinton, featuring Ford Leary on vocals.
 

Music and lyric credits go to Clinton.

Here comes the devil!
Oh, here comes the devil!
Oh, here comes the devil!

Oh, the devil with the devil says I!

Shhh!

Look out for the devil!
Look out for the devil!
Look out for the devil!

Oh, the devil with the devil says I!

You’re so afraid of Ol’ Man Satan
Now why don’t you stop your hesitatin’
You’re gonna be a long time dead so
The devil with the devil says I!

You’re always giving me the Dickens
Tellin’ me that life’s no easy pickin’s
But just as long as I have fun why
The devil with the devil says I!

You can have your social teas and
Bingo for your fun
But the things I like to do you’ll
Stop 
Me 
One by one

Now even if you make me stronger
That ain’t gonna make me live no longer
So even if I go to (Shhhh!)
The devil with the devil says I!

Look out for the devil! Look out for the devil!

Oh, the devil with the devil says I!
