Friend Of The Devil Lyrics
Artist: Ramblin' Jack Elliot
Album: Friends Of Mine
I lit out from Reno I was trailed by twenty hounds Didn't get to sleep that night Till the morning came around
chorus: 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, babe He loaned me twenty bills I spent that night in Utah In a cave up in the hills
I ran down to the levee But the Devil caught me there He took my twenty-dollar bill And he vanished in the air
Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night First one's named sweet Ann 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 Cheno, babe And one in Cherokee First one says she's got my child But it don't look like me
You can borrow from the Devil You can borrow from a friend But the Devil will give you twenty When your friend only got ten
