Me & The Devil Blues - Splinter Group

Early this mornin', when you knocked upon my door

Early this mornin', ooh, when you knocked upon my door

And I said, «Hello, Satan, I believe it’s time to go»

Me and the devil, was walkin' side by side

Me and the devil, ooh, was walkin' side by side

And I’m goin' to beat my woman, until I get satisfied

She say you don’t see why, that you will dog me 'round

She say you don’t see why, ooh, that you will dog me 'round

(spoken: Now, babe, you know you ain’t doin' me right, don’cha)

It must-a be that old evil spirit, so deep down in the ground

You may bury my body, down by the highway side

(spoken: Baby, I don’t care where you bury my body when I’m dead and gone)

You may bury my body, ooh, down by the highway side

So my old evil spirit, can catch a Greyhound bus and ride
