I get here early and I go home late Lately, what seems like every day I keep my head up till I stop to pray At the top of the hill is a sacred place But down in the valley is where I roam With these faded memories and half written songs And just when it seems that nothing else could go wrong That’s when I’m reminded we’re not alone There’s a devil in this holler There’s evil in these hills I’m just trying to make a dollar cause I’ve got to pay my bills There might be gold on this mountain but there’s fire on the ground Yeah there’s a devil in this holler but he ain’t gonna pull me down I throw my hand up when I’m driving in Speak to the ones that ask me how I’ve been By the time that I leave I’m tired and in pain I put the pedal to the floor on my way home to beat the train I find my pride at the end of the day My kids and my bride are why I live this way Hand in hand at the table Thank God for one more night If I wake up in the morning I’ll be ready for the fight There’s a devil in this holler There’s evil in these hills I’m just trying to make a dollar cause I’ve got to pay my bills There might be gold on this mountain but there’s fire on the ground Yeah there’s a devil in this holler but he ain’t gonna pull me down There’s a devil in this holler There’s evil in these hills I’m just trying to make a dollar cause I’ve got to pay my bills There might be gold on this mountain but there’s fire on the ground Yeah there’s a devil in this holler but he ain’t gonna pull me down Yeah there’s a devil in this holler but he ain’t gonna pull me down
