Lyrics
She ain't no stranger to the smoke and the fire
She's familiar with danger and trouble
She knows how to stoke a man's desire
She understands how to ignite a man's longing or passion
She lead you down a path of burning coals
She guides you through a difficult and painful path
And she'll wind up making ashes of your soul
She will ultimately destroy your inner being, leaving you devastated
The devil's front door, the devil's front door
The entrance to a place or situation associated with evil or temptation
Sweet temptation calling me once more
Attractive allure pulling the speaker towards temptation again
I swore I wouldn't give in like before
The speaker promised not to succumb again
But here I am knocking on the devil's front door
Despite the vow, the speaker finds themselves returning to the tempting situation
Some people say that don't believe in the devil at all
Some people deny the existence of evil, but the speaker has encountered it firsthand
But I know where she lives at man I've heard her call
The speaker knows where temptation lies and has been drawn by it
My name sounds like heaven on her lips
The speaker's name is pleasing to this tempting force
But hell ain't far from her forbidden kiss
However, the situation is dangerously close to something infernal
The devil's front door, the devil's front door
A repetition of the entrance to a place associated with evil
Sweet temptation calling me once more
Similar enticement pulling the speaker again
I swore I wouldn't give in like before
A renewed promise not to yield to temptation
But here I am knocking on
The continuation of the struggle against temptation
The devil's front door, the devil's front door
Reiteration of entering a place symbolizing temptation or evil
Walking up the steps to hell once more
Approaching a situation or place associated with temptation or evil once more
I swore I wouldn't give in like before
Reiterating the resolve not to give in to temptation
But here I am knocking
The ongoing struggle and vulnerability to temptation
Oh here I am knocking on the devil's front door
Reiteration of being drawn towards a situation symbolizing temptation or evil
On the devil's front door
The continuous pull towards a tempting or dangerous situation
