Blue Devil Lyrics

I used to have a nice life
I used to live by the right
But I've strayed from the good side of the lord
And I flirted with the Devil and he dealt me a card
And he told me that you will never win
And he told me that I was his best friend
I had nothing to go home to
So I sold my soul to the Devil now I'm blue
I never thought it could be this bad
Hurtin like this Oh, its killin me bad
And now I'm stuck in a life of pain
And I got the devil takin me away
And he told me that you will never win
And he told me that I was his only friend
I had nothing to go home to
So I sold my soul to the Devil now I'm blue

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.
