Verse 1

Down in Chile

Don Melchor had a cellar

With a big iron door

Don Melchor had a treasure

He kept down on the floor

Verse 2

The bottles started vanishing

One by one in the night

Don Melchor had a problem

He had to set it right

Verse 3

He called upon the Devil

Put the Devil in a rumor

He called upon the Devil

To spread a little superstition

Verse 4

There's the Devil in the cellar

There's the Devil at the gate

Better turn around, boys

Before you tempt your fate

Verse 5

There's the Devil in the cellar

Hear the midnight bells begin

Nobody steals from the Devil

Unless the Devil lets them in

Verse 6

The moon hangs like a silver knife

Above the sleeping ground

The wind slips through the iron bars

With a low and wicked sound

Verse 7

Every creak becomes a footstep

Every shadow grows a face

And the ones who came for treasure

They won't come back to that place

Verse 8

Was it claws against the stonework

Was it fire behind the door

Was there something in the darkness

That had never walked before

Verse 9

No one saw the Devil standing

No one proved the tale was true

But the bottles stopped disappearing

And the rumor grew and grew

Verse 10

He never needed horns

He never needed fire

Just a story in the shadows

And a town's own dark desire

Verse 11

There's the Devil in the cellar

There's the Devil at the gate

Better turn around, boys

Before you tempt your fate

Verse 12

There's the Devil in the cellar

Hear the midnight bells begin

Nobody steals from the Devil

Unless the Devil lets them in

Verse 13

He never needed horns

He never needed fire

Just a story in the shadows

And a town's own dark desire

Verse 14

There's the Devil in the cellar

There's the Devil at the gate

Better turn around, boys

Before you tempt your fate

Outro

There's the Devil in the cellar

Hear the midnight bells begin

Nobody steals from the Devil

Unless the Devil lets them in
