The song is sung by Mick Jagger as a first-person narrative and commentary from the point of view of a suave and sophisticated Lucifer. The lyrics have been said to be inspired by Mikhail Bulgakov's novel The Master and Margarita.

The style of the stanzas also bears resemblance to a passage in The Devil and Daniel Webster[citation needed].

"Sympathy for the Devil" begins:

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
Backed by an intensifying rock arrangement, the singer recounts his exploits over the course of human history and warns the listener; the last line is used near-verbatim at another point in the song:

If you meet me, have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste
