"Devil Is Prowling" Notes
I wrote this song in the Fall of 1994. It was one of the first times that I put down my guitar and tried to write a song that was something I could not play on the guitar. When I did this my songs started sounding more diverse than they had since I started writing songs in about 1976.

"Devil Is Prowling" Lyrics
The devil is prowling like a lion
Seeking whom he may devour
Who will buy these lies he's selling
Half truth of the hour
He's telling lies he told in Eden
Brush 'em off and sell for new
Looking for someone to swindle
Trying to get his claws on you
So, close the door and bar the window
Got to keep the devil out
When old Satan comes a calling
Turn to him and shout
Oh Lucifer I just can't bear you
Satan just you go away
Your doom is sure and your just killing
Time until the judgment day
You believe the Lord is Jesus
But that isn't all it takes
Satan and his hosts believe too
It gives them the shakes
So, close the door and bar the window
Got to keep the devil out
When old Satan comes a calling
Turn to him and shout
Oh Lucifer I just can't bear you
Satan just you go away
Your doom is sure and your just killing
Time until the judgment day
The devil is prowling like a lion
Seeking whom he may devour
Who will buy these lies he's selling
Half truth of the hour
He's telling lies he told in Eden
Brush 'em off and sell for new
Looking for someone to swindle
Trying to get his claws on you
So, close the door and bar the window
Got to keep the devil out
When old Satan comes a calling
Turn to him and shout
Oh Lucifer I just can't bear you
Satan just you go away
Your doom is sure and your just killing
Time until the judgment day
Your doom is sure and your just killing
Time until the judgment day
