Friend of the Devil
GI lit out from Reno, I was trailed by Ctwenty hounds
GDidn't get to sleep Clast night till the morning came around.
DSet out runnin' but I take my time
AmA friend of the devil is a friend of mine
DIf I get home beforeAm daylight, I just might get some Dsleep tonight.
Ran into the devil, babe, he loaned me twenty bills
I spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills.
Set out runnin' but I take my time, a friend of the devil is a friend of mine,
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
I ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there
He took my twenty-dollar bill and vanished in the air.
Set out runnin' but I take my time, a friend of the devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
DGot two reasons why I cry away each lonely night,
CThe first ones named sweet Anne Marie, and she's my hearts delight.
DThe second one is prison, babe, the sheriffs on my trail,
And if hAme catches up with me, IC'll spend my life iDn jail.
Got a wife in Chino, babe, and one in Cherokee
The first one says she's got my child, but it don't look like me.
Set out runnin' but I take my time, a friend of the devil is a friend of mine,
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
