To The Devil His Due Lyrics

Don't ya hide away from the bad things coming to you,
Don't ya hide your face from the things that don't ring true,
Good times, bad times, that may be so,
you're just part of the game and they never stop letting you know
but we hold the key to the future game,
we live in hope, she'll stay the same,
hold on there just a little longer,
ooh baby, good times, bad times.
Ah ah ah ah, to the devil his due
Ah ah ah ah, to the devil his due
Ah ah ah ah, to the devil his due
You stay good baby and don't you get bad at all,
and I might tell you now what I see in my crystal ball,
good times, bad times, coming your way,
ooh now watch out baby, the devil's gonna have his day.
but we hold the key to the future game,
we live in hope, she'll stay the same,
hold on there just a little longer,
ooh baby, good times, bad times.
Ah ah ah ah, to the devil his due
Ah ah ah ah, to the devil his due
Ah ah ah ah, to the devil his due
to the devil, his due
to the devil, his due
to the devil, his due
to the devil, his due....

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
