When the Devil Leads Us Home and Yells Surprise

Is that your house he asked This used to be my house I said But those are not your people So that can’t be your house But it is my house I said I had some people maybe a few Even though those are not your people Even though they don’t look like you I had to live somewhere I said This is the house where I lived But where are your people he said My people live in a different house They don’t care to know about me If you’re the devil Why are you asking me questions The devil said since the house You had to live in is gone I thought you’d be happy It sure is a hot day I said Of course it is said the devil Why do you think I work in town
