Burl Ives – The Devil’s Nine Questions Lyrics

Artist: Burl Ives
Song: The Devil’s Nine Questions

You must answer me, questions nine
Sing ninety nine and ninety
To see if you’re god’s or one of mine
And you are the weaver’s bonny

What is whiter than the milk?
Sing ninety nine and ninety
And what is softer than the silk?
And you are the weaver’s bonny

Snow is whiter than the milk
Sing ninety nine and ninety
And down is softer than the silk
And I am the weaver’s bonny

What is higher than a tree?
Sing ninety nine and ninety
And what is deeper than the sea?
And you arе the weaver’s bonny

Hеaven is higher than a tree
Sing ninety nine and ninety
And hell is deeper than the sea
And I am the weaver’s bonny

What is louder than a horn?
Sing ninety nine and ninety
And what is sharper than a thorn?
And you are the weaver’s bonny

Thunder is louder than a horn
Sing ninety nine and ninety
And death is sharper than a thorn
And I am the weaver’s bonny

What is more innocent than a lamb?
Sing ninety nine and ninety
And what is meaner than womankind?
And you are the weaver’s bonny

A babe’s more innocent than a lamb
Sing ninety nine and ninety
She-devil is meaner than womankind
And I am the weaver’s bonny

You have answered my questions nine
Sing ninety nine and ninety
You are god’s own and none of mine
And you are the weaver’s bonny
