Friend of the Devil

I lit out from Reno I was trailed by twenty hounds Didn't get to sleep last night Till the morning came around And 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 I ran into the devil And he loaned me twenty bills I spent the night in Utah In a cave up in the hills And 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 I 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 Second one is prison baby, the sheriff's on my trail And if he catches up with me I'll spend my life in jail Got a wife in Chino babe And one in Cherokee First one says she's got my child But it don't look like me 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 I 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 Second one is prison baby, the sheriff's on my trail And if he catches up with me I'll spend my life in jail I ran down to the levee But the devil caught me there He took my twenty dollar bill And vanished in the air 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 Yeah, 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
