The Fiddler & The Devil Songtext
von Bella’s Bartok

My time has come
We′ve had some fun
I had it all
I thought I'd won
I′ve seen the world
And I've made my peace
So just do with me as you please
Before I go
I go alone
Don't ask me this
And one more song
It ain′t too costly
It ain′t too cheap
Just relax
I'm on my knees


I had my bread
I drank my wine
All the while as you bide your time
Don′t make me beg
Don't make me plead
Cause now I′ve made my peace
Before I go
I go alone
Allow me this
And one more song
It aint too costly
No it aint too cheap
Just relax and dig this beat

Pull the bow across my strings
Is this really happening
Be it wraith or be it shade
Death she comes for all one day
My body shakes, my fingers ache
It's not my fiddle but my soul to take
From sea to sea and shore to shore
Ever is she waiting at my door

The dye is cast, the web is spun
I′ll seal the deal into morning sun
I'm on your doorstep till song is done
Then for your soul I come
I've seen it all, every foreign land
Sheherazade to sons mortal man
Went down to Georgia with Charlie′s band
But now paralyzed I stand


Pull the bow across my strings
Is this really happening
Be it wraith or be it shade
Death she comes for all one day
My body shakes, my fingers ache
It′s not my fiddle but my soul to take
From sea to sea and shore to shore
Ever is she waiting at my door
