Devil Got My Woman Songtext
You know, I'd rather be the Devil,
I'd rather be the Devil, then to be that woman's man
Yes I'd rather be the Devil, then to be that woman's man

You look so sorry,
You look so sorry, that I ever fell in love with you
Because you know you don't treat me, baby like you used to do

You no lay down last night
You no lay down last night, and I tried to take me some rest
But my mind got to ramblin', like the wild gease from the west

You know the woman that I love
The woman that i love, I stole her from my best friend
But you know, he done got lucky, and he done got her back again

You never used to cut your kindling,
You never used to cut your kindling, baby then I make you some fire,
Then I would turn all your water, way way way from these bogy bires

You know my baby she don't drink whiskey
My baby she don't drink no whiskey and I know she ain't crazy bout wine
Now it was nothing but the Devil, he done changed my babies' mind

You know I could be right
You know I could be right, then again I could be wrong
But it was nothing but the Devil, he done got my baby and he done gone
