1
Out back in Virginia
2
Crazy man played guitar with a cross-eyed mind
3
He said his music was like the wind
4
It'd come to him and go again
5
And I had a feeling the man he wasn't lying
6
Bottle of liquor by his side
7
A constant reminder of a man who dies
8
Cause he had done is living for so darn long
9
Pain of truth carved on his face
10
A monument to a fallen grace
11
But the words he said
12
Boy they hit me strong
13
CHORUS
14
Only one thing you got to learn
15
Only one thing you got to learn
16
If you run with the devil, you gonna' burn
17
Outside Birmingham
18
Young boy want to be a man
19
He met a woman
20
Who scared his young bones home.
21
She watched him as he walked away
22
Thinking on her younger days
23
Thinking on how something right
24
Could be so wrong
25
Abused child barely sixteen
26
Accustomed to the death of dreams
27
She would hurt her father by making love to other men
28
Blessed with a body she used like a tool
29
She made all men paying fools
30
But at night they say her crying would never end
31
CHORUS
32
Midnight on a Mississippi road
33
A young boy with a tortured soul
34
Called out to the night
35
Would you set me free?
36
Devil come by and shook his hand
37
Said "˜Son, you gonna' be my man,
38
But from this night on your soul belongs to me
39
People come from near and far
40
To hear him sing and play guitar
41
He was making money, making music, making women with style
42
A Louisiana woman toting a knife
43
Early one morning, she took his life
44
Before he died he saw the devil smile
45
CHORUS
Doug MacLeod - The Night of the Devil's ...
