Lyrics

I'd rather be the devil and I will leave my woman's ?mane?  
Yes, I'd rather be the devil and I will leave my woman's ?mane?  
'Cause nothing but the devil knows my baby's  
Nothing but the devil knows my baby's  
Nothing but the devil knows my baby's name  
  
Well, I laid down last night and I was trying to take my rest  
Yes, I laid down last night, I was trying to take my rest  
But my mind starts a-rambling like the wild geese in the  
My mind starts a-rambling like the wild geese in the  
Mind starts a-rambling like the wild geese in the west  
  
The woman I love, though she's evil all the time  
Yeah, the woman I love, oh she's evil all the time  
Studies so much evil, just add it on  
So much evil, just add it on  
So much evil, just add it on to mine  
  
The woman I love, I stole her from my own best friend  
The woman I love, I stole her from my best friend  
But I know you'll get lucky, steal her back  
I know you'll get lucky, try to steal her back  
I know you'll get lucky, steal her back again
