Devil In A Sleeping Bag
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.
We were headed home in Austin caught pneumonia on the road
Taking it home to Connie and the kids
A wheel ran off and jumped a railroad then ran through a grocery store
If you want to buy a bus I'm taking bids
And the devil shivered in his sleeping bag
He said traveling on the road is such a drag
If we can make it home by Friday we can brag
And the devil shivered in his sleeping bag
[ guitar ]
Well I just got back from New York City Kris and Rita done it all
Raw perfection there for all the world to see
Lord I heard an angel singing in the Philharmonic Hall
Rita Coolidge Rita Coolidge cleft for me
And the devil shivered...
And the devil shivered in his sleeping bag
