Lyrics
Speak of the Devil
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.
you say your man
is the jealous kind
he knocked you down
and blacked your eye
he slept the day
and he drank the night
lookin' for trouble
to start a fight
speak of the devil, here he comes after you
I don't even believe in evil
but see that all hell's gonna break loose
you say your man
he leaves you cryin'
he spends your money
and he steals you blind
he turns away
all your friends
then throws you out
when you pay the rent
speak of the devil, here he comes after you
I don't even believe in evil
but see that all hell's gonna break loose
speak of the devil
you say your man
he treats you mean
Texas temper
and bad scenes
he got a head
as hard as stone
and thinks you're cheatin'
if you ain't alone
speak of the devil, here he comes after you
I don't even believe in evil
but see that all hell's gonna break loose
