Temptation Road I was walking with the devil when he stuck out his right hand He said just come with me son, I'll lead you to the promised land I said no thank you Satan, I can get there on my own He walked away, grinned a grin, and threw this dog a bone Now I am just a poor boy , strung out on a wire Chasin' down my rainbows, walkin' through the fire Can't help being curious 'bout what's on the other side A temple of salvation or a den of suicide chorus And I say hey, can't you see I got a pretty heavy load, my friend Hey, don't you lead me down that temptation road again Thought I saw ole' scratch, it was just the other day I don't mean to alarm you but he was headed down your way 'Cause when weakness overcomes a man and you ain't got a friend You can count on all your enemies to get you in the end chorus Words & music © 1996 Kevin Jollimore
