[Intro]
Woah
Ahh-aa-la-la-la-la
Ahh-la-la-la-la-la
[Verse]
Devil rides backwards on a mule named Maybe
Down the road of indecision
A table was an island, the waitress said
In a sea of devotion
Devil rides backwards on a mule named Maybe
Down the road with me
[Chorus]
Ahh-la-la-la-la-la-la
Ahh-la-la-la-la-la-la
Ahh-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Ahh-la-la-la-la-la
[Verse]
Devil rides backwards on a mule named Maybe
Down the road of indecision
A table was an island, the waitress said
In a sea of devotion
Devil rides backwards on a mule named Maybe
Down the road with me
