Friends of the Devil Lyrics
The song Friends of the Devil is performed by Counting Crows .
Send Friends of the Devil Ringtone to your Cell
I lit out from Reno
I was trailed by twenty hounds
I didn't get to sleep that night
Till the morning came around
Set out runnin' but I take my time
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight
Ran into the devil
He loaned me twenty bills
I spent the night in Utah
In a cave up in the hills
Set out runnin' but I take my time
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight
Yeah well I ran down to the levee
But the devil caught me there
He took my twenty dollar bill
And vanished in the air
Set out runnin' but I take my time
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight
Got two reasons why I cry
Away each lonely night
The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie
And she's my hearts delight
The second one is prison, baby
The sheriff's on my trail
And if he catches up with me
I'll spend my life in jail
Got a wife in Chino, baby
And one in Cherokee
The first one says she's got my child
But it don't look like me
Set out runnin' but I take my time
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight
Come on Charley
Got two reasons why I cry
Away each lonely night
The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie
And she's my hearts delight
The second one is prison, baby
The sheriff's on my trail
And if he catches up with me
I'll spend my life in jail
I say I got a wife in Chino, baby
And one in Cherokee
The first one says she's got my child
But it don't look like me
Set out runnin' but I take my time
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight
