Fiddler's Green - Devil's Dozen lyrics
[Fiddler's Green - Devil's Dozen lyrics]
I've dealt with the devil
I went down to hell
Left with nothing, had nothing to lose
I've played with some broads
Had nothing to give
Got only some cigs and some booze
I've travelled the highways
I've walked down the line
And here is one thing I have learned
When you climb up a mountain
Fly close to the sun
Before long you're gonna get burned
I'm crying about my dirty mess
Been crying out loud since
My darling's gone 'cause I confessed
The devil's thirteen sins
Got into some trouble, been in a few fights
I ran with some bad company
With so many misfit's on so many nights
It's all just a bad memory
But when I woke up, still had beer in my cup
And a hell of a nasty hangover
Reality bites as she enters the room
God help me, I wish I was sober
I'm crying about my dirty mess
Been crying out loud since
My darling's gone 'cause I confessed
The devil's thirteen sins
I'm crying about my dirty mess
Been crying out loud since
My darling's gone 'cause I confessed
The devil's thirteen sins
Thirteen sins, no one wins
Can't get them outta my mind
Such regret can't forget
About my horrible crimes
'Cause every second, every minute
Every hour it's hanging over my head
And every second, every minute, every hour
It's till the day that I'm dead
I did one for the money and two for the show
Three for some good rock n roll
I did four on the floor and
Took five in one toke
Did six from the depth of my soul
Did seven in heaven and eight down in hell
Did nine in the garden of Eden
Then ten and eleven and twelve in a row
The last one without any reason
I'm crying about my dirty mess
Been crying out loud since
My darling's gone 'cause I confessed
The devil's thirteen sins
I'm crying about my dirty mess
Been crying out loud since
My darling's gone 'cause I confessed
The devil's thirteen sins
The devil's dozen's haunting me
May the devil never win
I went down to hell
Left with nothing, had nothing to lose
I've played with some broads
Had nothing to give
Got only some cigs and some booze
I've travelled the highways
I've walked down the line
And here is one thing I have learned
When you climb up a mountain
Fly close to the sun
Before long you're gonna get burned
I'm crying about my dirty mess
Been crying out loud since
My darling's gone 'cause I confessed
The devil's thirteen sins
Got into some trouble, been in a few fights
I ran with some bad company
With so many misfit's on so many nights
It's all just a bad memory
But when I woke up, still had beer in my cup
And a hell of a nasty hangover
Reality bites as she enters the room
God help me, I wish I was sober
I'm crying about my dirty mess
Been crying out loud since
My darling's gone 'cause I confessed
The devil's thirteen sins
I'm crying about my dirty mess
Been crying out loud since
My darling's gone 'cause I confessed
The devil's thirteen sins
Thirteen sins, no one wins
Can't get them outta my mind
Such regret can't forget
About my horrible crimes
'Cause every second, every minute
Every hour it's hanging over my head
And every second, every minute, every hour
It's till the day that I'm dead
I did one for the money and two for the show
Three for some good rock n roll
I did four on the floor and
Took five in one toke
Did six from the depth of my soul
Did seven in heaven and eight down in hell
Did nine in the garden of Eden
Then ten and eleven and twelve in a row
The last one without any reason
I'm crying about my dirty mess
Been crying out loud since
My darling's gone 'cause I confessed
The devil's thirteen sins
I'm crying about my dirty mess
Been crying out loud since
My darling's gone 'cause I confessed
The devil's thirteen sins
The devil's dozen's haunting me
May the devil never win
