My Devil

The thunder cracks
now my devil's back again
he's gonna tell me where it's at

says you look sad
but I understand
all these things that you lack

now I'm tripping up the stairs again
I'm in the corner drunk and stuttering
backslidin' since I don't know when

but things are just the way they is
not the way they're supposed to be
he promised that he'd dance with me
then he stole them shoes right off of my feet have mercy

on second street
he picked a fight with me again
called me a goddamned sinner

he stole my car
crashed it into the bar, then he called you
and claimed it wouldn't start

he's got me hocking everything I own
I'm hangin' on your telephone
I'm holdin' up the grocery store

but things are just the way they is
not the way they're supposed to be
he promised that he'd dance with me
then he stole them shoes right off of my feet have mercy
