Lyrics
I lit out from Reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds Didn't get to sleep that night ’til the morning came around Set out runnin' but I 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 Ran into the devil, babe, he loaned me twenty bills Spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills Set out runnin' but I 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 Ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there He took my twenty dollar bill and he vanished in the air Set out runnin’ but I 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 Anne Marie, and she's my heart's delight The second one is prison, baby, 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 one in Cherokee First one say she got my child, but it don't look like me Set out runnin' but I 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 Anne Marie, and she’s my heart's delight The second one is prison, baby, 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 one in Cherokee First one say she got my child, but it don't look like me Set out runnin' but I 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
