Met the devil in a desert motel
She showed me her key and I showed her mine
She stood on the sidewalk, her eyes on my door
So I grabbed my belongings and I slept out on the hallway floor.
She said, "Broken dreams and bottle caps out in the cold--
I'm a fire burnin' to warm your soul.
And crazy things that you left behind; no more scratching the walls,
No more livin' on the borderline..."

No Sanctuary in the devil's country
No Sanctuary not even here
No Sanctuary in the devil's country
No Sanctuary on the prairie.

On the devil's land there is no end
She found me and she said
My violent heart would die a violent death

No Sanctuary in the devil's country
No Sanctuary not even here
No Sanctuary in the devil's country
No Sanctuary on the prairie.

Hot midsummer Sleeping Dog Days
I'm a weightless sagebrush blowing away
Shiny cold brittle hard nights
Gonna try to catch a star between my teeth to bite

No Sanctuary in the devil's country
No Sanctuary not even here
No Sanctuary in the devil's country
No Sanctuary on the prairie.
