Devil Got My Woman

You know, I'd rather be the ol' devil

Well, I'd rather be the devil

Then to be that woman' man

You know, rather be the devil

Than to be that woman' man

You know, I'm so sorry

You know, so sorry

That I ever fell in love wit' you-ooo-hoo-oo

Because you know you don't treat me

Baby, like you used ta do-hoo

You know, I laid down last night

You know, I laid down last night

And I thought to take me some rest

But my mind got to rambling

Like a wild geese from the west

You know the woman that I love

The woman that I love

I stol't her from my best friend

But you know he done got lucky

An he done got her back, again

You know, I used to cut your kindleing

You know, I used to cut your kindleing

Baby, then I made you some fire

Then I would tote all your water

Way, way, way, from the bogy brier

You know, my baby she don't drink whiskey

My baby, she don't drink no whiskey

An I know she ain't crazy about wine

Now, it was nothin' but the ol' devil

He done changed my baby's mind

You know, I could be right

You know, I could be right

Then again, I could be wrong

But it was nothin' but the ol' devil

He done got my baby

Now he done gone.
