Devil Like You

Down the road where nobody goes
There is a story only two people know well
One lies dead while the other lives free
I'll tell it, dear, if you'll listen to me well
One summer day, the weather was nice
Two young lovers, a groom and a bride
That night they shared the same bed
Didn't know that she would end up dead
Oh, oh, oh
You said: Till death do us part
You had it planned from the start
Take her money, stop her heart
How'd the Lord make a devil like you?
I used my hands to take her life
The very ones that asked her to be my wife
I watched the light fade from her eyes
One man's truth is another man's lie
I see her face wherever I go
Lord knows I never go down that road
I took her money and left her for dead
And now her voice, it won't leave my head
Oh, oh, oh
I said: Till death do us part
Had it planned from the start
Take her money, stop her heart
How'd the Lord make a devil like me?
Spents his nights lonely and cold
The only company he finds is a ghost
At the bottom of every bottle she'll be waiting for you, well
Folks, think twice before you say: I do
Oh, oh, oh
You said: Till death do us part
Had it planned from the start
Take her money, stop her heart
How'd the Lord make a devil like you?
Oh, oh, oh
You said: Till death do us part
Had it planned from the start
Take her money, stop her heart
How'd the Lord make a devil like you? (Like me)
Oh, How'd the Lord make a devil like you? (Like me)
Oh, How'd the Lord make a devil like you? (Like me)
