Well hello little girl, welcome to this big town

Ive been patiently waiting, let me show you around

Did you bring lots of money, do you have nerves of steel

And are you ready to gamble, put your heart on the wheel



Oh oh, the devil wind

Big town claims another win

Is this how it all begins

How the innocents have changed

Oh oh, the devil wind

Breaks another young heart again

So this is how it always ends

How the innocents have changed



I was born in this city, i destroyed my old man

But he came to this city from an innocent land

Now i should know better, id be a fool if i got hurt

But you do what you have to, let me be the first



Repeat chorus



After the devil wind stops blowin?

Wake up and find your hearts been broken
