dont make me bring back my music posts from old school r/drama

I lit out from Reno

I was trailed by twenty hounds

Didn't get to sleep that night

Till the morning came around

Set out runnin' 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

Ran into the Devil, babe

He loaned me twenty bills

I spent the night in Utah

In a cave up in the hills

Set out runnin' 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 down to the levee

But the Devil caught me there

He took my twenty dollar bill

And he vanished in the air

Set out runnin' 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

Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night

The first one's named sweet Anne Marie and she's my hearts delight

The second one is prison, babe, 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

Set out runnin' 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

Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night

The first one's named sweet Anne Marie and she's my hearts delight

The second one is prison, babe, 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 runnin' 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
