"Follow Me to Hell"
Written by Port Sulphur Band
Publication December 10, 1896
If I was a devil
Would you follow me to Hell
If I was a preacher
Could you forgive yourself
If I was a fire
Would you fan the flames
If breathing is desire
There are storm clouds gathering
Would you follow me to Hell?
Tell me what you're thinking
Tell me what you fear
Tell me what she whispers
When darkness takes the wheel
One word spoken sweetly
One word to raise the dead
Leaving is so easy
Stop your rambling
Would you follow me to Hell?
If I was a raven
Would you be the wind
If I was a dagger
Would you confess your sins
If I was an ocean
Would you be a door
If I was a mirror
Could you find the other shore?
Would you follow me to Hell?
