3.WICKED WILLIAM

william was a wicked child

made trouble at school and ran completely wild

cussed the teachers on the bus

frightened all the girls and mussed their hair up

but his mother loved him dearly

she could never see him clearly

"william, be good for me"

before wicked william was born

his mother had a dream the devil came to her

he told her she would have his son

persuaded her to call him lucifer jr.

but she dismissed it as an old nightmare

probably caused by something spicy that she'd eaten at the state fair of texas

"there ain't no such thing as the devil"

when william became a man

women loved him he was such a handsome devil

but he turned every heart to hate

left 'em feeling dirty as a dinner plate in the sink

still his mother loved him dearly 

she could never see him clearly

"william, be good for me"

there ain't no such thing as the devil
