Lyrics
Hell band on devilry, for funerals and wedding revelry
See them swaying, hear them playing
Professors of the curse, the evil eye and worse
All dressed in rags, faces painted like hags
If you listen to the trumpet, your girlfriend is a strumpet
If you hear the violin, she’ll commit another sin
When the pipes start playing, the women are praying
When the bells are ringing, the women start yelling
The women yell and stamp their feet,
just like mad dogs on heat
Biting and punching, kicking and thumping
But they all look sweet and as pretty as a treat
And they never wear a frown when
there’s a stranger in town
Hell band on devilry
When the trombones start to rumble,
all the buildings start to crumble
The blowing of the horn makes
you wish you were never born
With the beating of the drum the candle will run
With the stomping of the jug the candle will chug
The candle flickers and your girlfriend’s knickers
Lose their elastic as she trips the light fantastic
The band passes by, and she feels dizzily high
But when they turn the corner,
there’s nothing to warn her
This is the Devil’s band, so take the situation in hand
Because they’ll fill your life with trouble and strife
Professors of the curse, the evil eye and worse
Each one of them a music-maker, with the heart of a troublemaker.
