Lyrics
Devil's Flesh And Bone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There you saw a dirty one, dirty one.
Thought you caught a curly one, curly one.
Devil's flesh and bones, catch them if you can.
Big boy blue, he ran away, ran away.
Find him on, a bread a day, a bread a day.
Leave it on the line, and then he'll understand.
When all is left to you, no one coming through,
Oh, what's a girl to do?
If the will demands a certain change of plans,
You catch him if you can.
Feel your heart freeze over.
Feel your cold steel, soldier.
Leave him out to dry, and find another man.
You try to bring it back-- you don't.
You try to find a snag-- you won't.
We're all flesh and bones, so catch me if you can!
When all is left to you, no one coming through,
Oh, what's a girl to do?
If the will demands a certain change of plans
You catch me if you can.
You try to bring it back-- you don't.
You try to find a snag-- you won't.
We're all flesh and bones, so catch me if you can!
When all is left to you, no one coming through,
Oh, what's a girl to do?
If the will demands a certain change of plans,
You catch him if you can!
When all is left to you, no one coming through,
Oh, what's a girl to do?
If the will demands a certain change of plans,
You catch him if you can!
You catch him if you can.
You catch him if you can.
