• Give the Devil His Due

Wake up little darling, we gotta hit the road
I'll tell you all about it, but now we gotta go,
Don't sleep no more, we really gotta run,
We gotta put some distance down between the setting sun
Well you know that i love you
But i signed my name on the dotted line, i gotta give the
devil his due

Well i met him there at midnite, just like the stories say,
He said i'll give you everything you want, but you'll have to pay
Twenty years from now, my boy i'm coming back to get
Son, this is my business, and i've never failed yet
Sweetheart, know that i love you
But just to get all your love, i had to give the devil his due

Well i got everything i wanted, a hundred times or more,
I thought that i could cheat him an i thought i knew the score
But now i hear 'em calling, he's looking for his pay
There ain't no use in trying to fight, he's taking me away

See the clouds a coming, hear the lightning crack,
Old nick he's keeping real good time, he told me he'd be back
Don't worry little baby, only i gotta pay,
Nearly every minute i've been waiting for this day
Always darling, i'll love you
While i'm stoking up the fires of hell, and i give the devil his due

Well i got everything i wanted, a hundred times or more,
I thought that i could cheat him an i thought i knew the score
But now i hear 'em calling, he's looking for his pay
There ain't no use in trying to fight, he's taking me away

When you hear the wind howl, listen for my voice,
I never would have left you, but he never gave a choice
He kept his promise, and i'd do it all again
Just one day to be with you, i'd suffer all this pain
Well you know that i love you
And i'm stoking up the fires of hell, because i give the devil his due

I gotta give the devil his due
