The Lord He said, "Yes, I have plenty on hand, But it's away down south on the Rio Grande, And, to tell you the truth, the stuff is so poor I doubt if 'twill do for hell any more." The Devil went down and looked over the truck, And he said if it came as a gift he was stuck, For when he'd examined it carefully and well He decided the place was too dry for a hell. But the Lord just to get the stuff off His hands He promised the Devil He'd water the land, For he had some old water that was of no use, A regular bog hole that stunk like the deuce. So the grant it was made and the deed it was given; The Lord He returned to His place up in heaven. The Devil soon saw he had everything needed To make up a hell and so he proceeded. He scattered tarantulas over the roads, Put thorns on the cactus and horns on the toads, He sprinkled the sands with millions of ants So the man that sits down must wear soles on his pants. He lengthened the horns of the Texas steer, And added an inch to the jack rabbit's ear; He put water puppies in all of the lakes, And under the rocks he put rattlesnakes. He hung thorns and brambles on all of the trees, He mixed up the dust with jiggers and fleas; The rattlesnake bites you, the scorpion stings, The mosquito delights you by buzzing his wings. The heat in the summer's a hundred and ten, Too hot for the Devil and too hot for men; And all who remained in that climate soon bore Cuts, bites, stings, and scratches, and blisters galore. He quickened the buck of the bronco steed, And poisoned the feet of the centipede; The wild boar roams in the black chaparral It's a hell of a place that we've got for a hell. He planted red pepper beside of the brooks; The Mexicans use them in all that they cook. Just dine with a Greaser and then you will shout, "I've hell on the inside as well as the out!
