The Devil Wears a Suit and Tie

This gonna be the best one, Brother

Alright here we go

Well Reverend, Reverend, please come quick

'Cause I've got something to admit

I met a man out in the sticks of good Ole Miss

He drove a Series 10 Cadillac and wore a cigar on his lip

Oh, don't you know the devil wears a suit and tie?

I saw him driving down The 61 in early July

White as a cottonfield and sharp as a knife

I heard him howling as he passed me by

And he said, "I know you, I know you, young man

I know you by the state of your hands

You're a six-string picker, just as I, I am

Well, let me learn you somethin': I know a few turns to make all the girls dance"

Don't you know the devil wears a suit and tie?

I saw him driving down The 61 in early July

White as a cottonfield and sharp as a knife

I heard him howling as he passed me by

Foolish, foolish was I

Damn my foolish eyes

'Cause that man's lesson had a price, oh sweet price

My sweet soul everlasting, a very own eternal light

Don't you know that the devil wears a suit and tie?

I saw him driving down The 61 in early July

White as a cottonfield and sharp as a knife

I heard him howling as he passed me by

Don't you know that the devil wears a suit and tie?

I saw him driving down The 61 in early July

White as a cottonfield and sharp as a knife

I heard him howling as he passed me by
