Underground Folk Rebel Doc Burkhardt - Me and the Devil Lyrics

I've been playing cards with the devil
And all of my suits are black
I could win every hand
God knows it won't bring you back
I've been running around with the devil
We're painting this town red
It doesn't matter how many windows we break
I know I'll never wake the dead
I've been driving around with the devil
He tells me don't stop at the yellow lights
He says you got to know how to live
Not everything got to be right

I've been taking shots with the devil
We're lining up that silver rum
I'm trying to forget my faults
Those things that no one could outrun
I've been spending every night with the devil
And he smokes on my front lawn
He puts them out on his tongue
I ask him when he'll leave town
I've been spending time with devil
He's the one who says when he'll leave
Watches me brush my teeth in the morning
Watches me at night when I sleep
