ME AND THE DEVIL BLUES (take 2)

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
I'm goin' to beat my woman
        until I get satisfied
She say you don't see why
        that you will dog her 'round
        spoken: Now, baby, you know you ain't doin' me
        right, now
She say you don't see why, ooh
        that I will dog her 'round
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
