[Verse 1] The devil said for you and I To settle in our shoes So we would never have to fight And never have to lose [Chorus] But many a road have I wandered And many a love have I pondered Many a life have I squandered On my way, on my way, on my way On my way, on my way back home [Verse 2] So I went up to god's front door And said, "Hey, listen up! You know, the devil offers Coupe DeVilles And water in my cup" [Chorus] But many a road have I wandered And many a love have I pondered Many a life have I squandered On my way, on my way, on my way On my way, on my way back home [Verse 3] So I laughed in the devil's face And said, "Hey, go to hell You think I'd buy just anything That you would try and sell?" [Chorus - alt] Cause many a life have I wagered And many a love have I savored Many a lie have I favored On my way, on my way, on my way On my way, on my way back home [Outro] Yeah, on my way, on my way On my way, on my way back home Yeah, on my way, on my way Oh, on my way back home
