Devil By A Different Name Lyrics by Lacy J. Dalton
2023
[Verse 1] Call me whiskey, call me wine Call me cocaine or codeine Call me power, call me fame I'm just a devil by a different name, boys Devil by a different name [Verse 2] Call me left-wing, call me right We are split right down the middle in this fight Divided we fall, that rule don't change It's just a devil by a different name, boys Devil by a different name [Chorus] This wicked world is dancing with the devil In a wild and crazy hurdy-gurdy dance Caught up in the frenzy and the revel There's a dreadful price to pay for this romance [Verse 3] Call me imam, call me priest We are brothers separated by belief For the lawless faith is the ball and chain It's just a devil by a different name, boys Devil by a different name [Verse 4] Call me brown-skin, call me white It's not the color of our skin that makes us right When somebody tells you we're not the same That's just a devil by a different name, boys Devil by a different name [Bridge] There's a still small voice that whispers deep inside us Listen close and you might hear it say There's a light still out here shining in the darkness It'll be here when you find you've lost your way [Verse 5] So call me gay, boys, call me straight Must we stare across this chasm filled with hate If they say we're wrong, we should be ashamed That's just a devil by a different name, boys Devil by a different name [Chorus] This wicked world is dancing with the devil In a wild and crazy hurdy-gurdy dance Caught up in the frenzy and the revel There's a dreadful price to pay for this romance-ance [Verse 6] I am a woman, I am strong And I've been told that I am rust now for so long Eve ate an apple? They say we're to blame That's just a devil by a different name, boys Devil by a different name, boys Devil by a different, devil by a different Devil by a different name
