Get Thee Behind Me, Satan song lyrics – written by Irving Berlin, performed by Harriet Nelson in Follow the Fleet
Get thee behind me, Satan
I want to resist
But the moon is low and I can’t say “No”
Get thee behind me
Get thee behind me, Satan
I mustn’t be kissed
But the moon is low and I may let go
Get thee behind me
Someone I’m mad about
Is waiting in the night for me
Someone that I mustn’t see
Satan, get thee behind me
He promised to wait
But I won’t appear and he may come here
Satan, he’s at my gate
Get thee behind me
Stay where you are
It’s too late
