That Ole Devil Called Love

Someone’s whisperin’ in my ear

I say, “No, no, go away.”

But he don’t hear

He follows me around

Builds me up, tears me down

Try my best to shake him

But he just hangs around

It's that ole devil called love again

Gets behind me and keeps giving me that shove again

Putting rain in my eyes

Tears in my dreams

And rocks in my heart

It's that sly sun-of-a-gun again

He keeps telling me that I'm the lucky one again

But I still have that rain

I still have those tears

And those rocks in my heart

Suppose I didn't stay and ran away

Wouldn't play

That devil-what a potion he would brew

He'd follow me around

Build me up, tear me down

I'd be so bewildered

I wouldn't know what to do

Might as well give up that fight again

I know darn well he'll convince me

That he's right again

When he sings that siren song

I just gotta tag along

With that ole devil called love
