Lyrics

The Devil's out drivin a big cadillac, he's come to take me to Hell and back. He says c'mon boys let's have us some fun. I'm havin' a party and you better come.

CHS

Cause it's a Dead Man's Party x2 A Dead Man's Party and you ain't coming home alive

I got my suit and I got my tie, shiny little pennies on each eye. The Devil laughs and opens the door, there's always room for just one more

Eddie is there singin summertime blue and ol Gene Vincents waitin there too. Elvis Presley and Johnny Burnette, they are waitin' on the boys who ain't dead yet
