Array ( [sid] => 154547 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Buyer Beware [time] => 2009-10-29 19:30:05 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Hoss if you didn’t know is something people in the south, use as a nickname, in old times you’d here people say “how’s it going Hoss?” or “Look it’s the big Hoss” it was a common expression

One thing rings through my mind
After each sell there’s a sign on the door of his shop
No one sees it when they go in
It says “Buyer Beware”

Make a deal with the devil
Go on down to his level
Travel the seven stages of hell
Let the devil have one more sell

He’ll tempt you with the one thing you want deep down in your heart
He’ll show you what makes those strings that hold it taunt
He is a snake, sliding through the holes
Of what people calls gods creation, looking for souls

Take anything you want
We’ve got everything you could ever need
Go on take whatever you want, Hoss
It’s your loss

“Take EVERYTHING you want”
But you’ll pay for it
Come make a deal with the devil
Come on now boy come to my level
Travel down my seven stages of hell
Let the devil have him just one more sell

can't emphasize how much people indulge in the devil's market.

did u intend to use "Hoss" (Southern nickname) as another name to call someone in Hell? (since Hell is 'down' there) ya know?
i dont know that's what i'm thinking

effective write either way

take care
