Lyrics
As a boy I had a gig with a travelin' show Way back in '63 We did a little pickin' for the soldier boys Of general bobby lee
But when we got to pennsylvania I knew there'd be a change We caught up with some boys from georgia And I heard one of them say
Don't tell the band The devil's on his way Don't tell the band Just let the music play
Later on I had a job pouring gin and rum On the grand queen of the sea We set out on our first transatlantic voyage Headed for new york city
But when I felt that lady shudder I knew there'd be a change I saw the captain grab the first mate And I thought I heard him say
Don't tell the band The devil's on his way Don't tell the band Just let the music play Just let the music play
In the restaurant at the end of the universe In the year 3010 I was listenin' to the good old interstellar boys Playin' "let it be" again
But when I heard the trumpet sounding I knew there'd be a change A prophet wearin' robes appeared before us And he looked at me and said
Don't tell the band The devil's on his way Don't tell the band Just let the music play
Don't tell the band The devil's on his way Don't tell the band Just let the music play Just let the music play Just let the music play
