Friend of the Devil (Live)

Well, I lit it out from Reno

I was trailed by twenty hounds

Didn't get to sleep last night

Till the morning came around

Set out running, 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

Well, I ran into the Devil

And he loaned me twenty bills

I spent the night in Utah

In a cave up in the hills

I set out running, 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

But I ran down to the levee

But the Devil caught me there

And he took my twenty dollars

And he slicked back all my hair

I set out running, but I take my time

A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine

If I get home before daylight

Just might get some sleep tonight

I've got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night

The first one's named sweet Anne Marie and she's my heart's delight

The second one is prison, babe, sheriff's on my trail

And if he catches up with me, I'll spend my life in jail

Well, I got a wife in Chino, baby

One in Cherokee

One that says she's got my child

She don't look like me

Set out running, 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 set out running, 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
