Devil On My Back
There's a devil on my back and I know he's real
Followed my track straight down to Mobile
This old hull is rotten, the water leaks through
I've got a boat full of something
Reminds me a you
The captain says we can drink all day
Don't worry boy, it'll be ok
That devil's no stranger
I know him well
He looks like me
As far as I can tell
There's nothing
I cannot be
There's nothing
Like the open sea
When the wind blows wild
I can feel your touch
Who knew a moment
Could hurt so much
I never found a bottle that I couldn't break
Oh I'd hit the throttle until it was drank
So I buried my bucket, and bade farewell
I left the Mobile Bay moonshine and devil in hell
There's nothing
I cannot be
There's nothing
Like the open sea
When the wind blows wild
I can feel your touch
Who knew a moment
Could hurt so much
In the cool night air
I can hear your voice
Who knew the future
Could be our choice
Followed my track straight down to Mobile
This old hull is rotten, the water leaks through
I've got a boat full of something
Reminds me a you
The captain says we can drink all day
Don't worry boy, it'll be ok
That devil's no stranger
I know him well
He looks like me
As far as I can tell
There's nothing
I cannot be
There's nothing
Like the open sea
When the wind blows wild
I can feel your touch
Who knew a moment
Could hurt so much
I never found a bottle that I couldn't break
Oh I'd hit the throttle until it was drank
So I buried my bucket, and bade farewell
I left the Mobile Bay moonshine and devil in hell
There's nothing
I cannot be
There's nothing
Like the open sea
When the wind blows wild
I can feel your touch
Who knew a moment
Could hurt so much
In the cool night air
I can hear your voice
Who knew the future
Could be our choice
