Devil Jonah
by Rusty Shipp

Album: Mortal Ghost


Verse 1
There was a man or maybe a monster
Dared to curse his very Maker
And so he was thrown overboard in the water
Into the belly of the Earth
And with damnation as his anchor
He sank down to the lower caverns
Of Poseidon's Hearth
Where the floor is made of fire

Chorus
Devil Jonah's gonna pull you down
'Till you hit the bottom of the ocean
'Cause no one wants to go to Hell alone
He'll keep your gravestone nice and warm

Verse 2
Do you feel him here?
Those haunting fingers are coming over the stern
Smells like he's being burned
Until there's nothing even left of him
Nothing but a lesson to teach your children
What happens to the hell-bent
He shook his fist at the Creator
And never made it beyond the equator
Before the storm came and swallowed him whole
And he became a devil
And to this day he prowls and he wanders the sea
And seeks whom he may devour
He waits in the water
Tempting sailors over the edge

Chorus
Devil Jonah's gonna pull you down
Till you hit the bottom of the ocean
'Cause no one wants to go to Hell alone
He'll keep your gravestone nice and warm

Devil Jonah's gonna pull you down
Till you hit the bottom
Your time has come
'Cause no one plays chess with God and wins
If you walk with Satan
You'll go where he's going
