Lord, be my witness!

[Chorus]
Gotta keep the devil off (Gotta keep the devil off)
Keep the devil off
Gotta keep the devil off (Gotta keep the devil off)
Keep the devil off
Can't worry 'bout no snakes (Worry 'bout no snakes)
What good are those riches
If you're six feet under? Lord, be my witness
Keep the devil off (Keep the devil off)

[Justin Scott]
I was born on the Southside of the moon
Country boy did this big from the bottom of the map
To the top of the mountain, pimpin, I'm on the move
I'm in the groove, on the late night
I make the move if the play right
You ain't seen it like I seen it
My vision nowadays 'bout as bright as the daylight
Supernova, I made a strong foundation
Outta all these boulders I carry
I ran them snakes in my yard
And you were tuckin your tail, actin all scary
(Uhh!) We ain't cut from that cloth (Well)
I paid in gold what I bought (Well)
I ran circles 'round y'all
And never, ever, ever got caught (WOO!)

[Chorus]
Gotta keep the devil off (Keep the devil off)
Keep the devil off
Gotta keep the devil off (Keep the devil off)
Keep the devil off
Can't worry 'bout no snakes (Worry 'bout no snakes)
What good are those riches (riches)
If you're six feet under? (under) Lord, be my witness
Keep the devil off (Keep the devil off)
Keep the devil off
Gotta keep the devil off (Keep the devil off)
Keep the devil off
Ain't worried 'bout no snakes (Worried 'bout no snakes)
What good are those riches (riches)
If you're six feet under? (under) Lord, be my witness
Gotta keep the devil off (Keep the devil off)

[Justin Scott]
I was born underneath the pecan tree
With the soul of giant and the heart of a lion
when our world couldn't WAIT for an O.G.
I was creepin, crawlin, fallin out the shack
Backwards slippin upward through the crack
Now I creep in storage where you want to be
But barely get to see but never ever at
Paid fo'~! I made more than they thought I would on my tax
I mix the candy with the grain, and the soul with the swang
and the bang - and that's called balance
We ain't cut from that cloth (Well)
I paid in gold what I bought (Well)
I ran circles 'round the non-believers
The feds, the people, and never got caught (WOO!)

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Gotta keep the devil off (Keep the devil off)
(Keep the devil off) K-e-e-p t-h-e d-e-v-i-l o-f-f...
L-o-r-d... K-e-e-p t-h-e d-e-v-i-l o-f-f...
L-o-r-d... (Ahhhh, haa-ahh)
(Keep the devil off)
L-o-r-d, L-o-r-d... (ahh-haa, ahh)
L-o-r-d, L-o-r-d... (Keep the devil off)

Lord, be my witness!

[Chorus]
