We are responsible
to our children.
They are guided
by what they see and
what they hear.
Remember the old time
statement..."Don't
do as I do; do as I
say". Well,
be sure what you mean to
say is something
positive they can hold
on to.
De Devil An' De Chile
De devil came
a searchin',
'Long wif his
evil ban'.
Lookin' for
new souls ta steal,
Travelin' crost
de lan'.
He come 'pon
some chillin,
A playin' in
de stree'.
He say he come
ta show 'em,
How much fun
it is ta cheat.
He say he gonna
teach 'em,
Everthin' he
knowed.
How aftawads
he take 'em,
Where hit doan
neva git co'd.
De devil he's
a doin' fin',
W'en w'at ta
his surprise.
A lil girl
tug on his sleeve,
Wif tears in
bof her eyes.
"Hey, mis'er,"
she says plit'ly,
"Wha' ya tryin'
ta do?"
I jist come
frum Sunday School,
An' I hear
de truf 'bout you.
Dey tau't us
all dere is ta know,
'Bout wha'
ya dun ta man.
'Bout all de
evil that ya do,
Ta ketch us
ef ya can.
Dey tol' us
ef we really b'lieve,
An' wan' ta
do wha's right,
Den all we
hast ta do is ast,
An' our hearts
are sealed up tight.
De devil, he
los' his evil grin,
An' a sneer
cros' over his face.
"Som uns allus
interferin'," he say,
"Com on le's
leave dis place."
Now chillin,
doan ya ever think,
De devil he
gon' fer good.
He's in de
backgroun' a waitin',
Till ya doan
do wha' ya should.
He's a sneak
an' he's a villin,
Wun of de wustest
kin'.
So w'en ya
feel him a comin',
Jist say, "Devil,
git de behin'."
