The Devil Himself Songtext
von Chestnut Grove

Wishin′ on a life, but im doin hard time
Admitted myself to provide all the help
And committed a series of crimes

And I'll keep myself safe and alive

Cause I′m makin' a deal with the devil himself
And he's keepin′ her safe while I′m left doin' hard time

I met her west state, I met her off the highway
I told her I was wonderin′, I didn't have a safe place to stay

So she took me, inside
Oh you know she let me stay more than the night

Cause I′m makin' a deal with the devil himself
And he′s keepin' her safe while I'm left doin′ hard time


Oh that whistle on the stove you know that I′m high enough
And I'm dipped in a mug so you know that I′m strong enough
And she feels a bit fuzzy, in a doozy sort of way
Now she's down on the ground and I′m making myself
More than a comfortable place to stay

I met her west state, I met her off the highway
I told her I was wonderin', I didn′t have a safe place to stay

So she took me, inside
Oh you know she let me stay more than the night

Cause I'm makin' a deal with the devil himself
Makin′ a deal with the devil herself
Makin′ a deal with the devil himself
And he's keepin′ her safe while I'm left doin′ hard time
