Ministry - Friend of the Devil lyrics
[Ministry - Friend of the Devil lyrics]
I was trailed by twenty hounds
Didn't get to sleep last night
'Till the morning came around
Still out front, gonna 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 into air
Still out front, gonna 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 Emily
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
I spent the night in Utah
In a cave up in the hills
Trying to find the devil
But I doubt I ever will
Still out front, gonna 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 Emily
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 and one's in Cherokee
The first one says she's got my child
But it don't look like me
Still out front, gonna 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
