GI lit out from Reno,
I was Ctrailed by twenty hounds
GDidn't get to sleep last night
Till the Cmorning came around

DSet out runnin but I take my time
AmA friend of the devil is a friend of mine
If DI get home before daylight,
AmJust might get some sleep toDnight
[Verse 2]
GRan into the devil, babe,
He Cloaned me twenty bills
GSpent the night in Utah
In a Ccave up in the hills
[Chorus]
DSet out runnin but I take my time,
A Amfriend of the devil is a friend of mine
DI get home before daylight,
AmJust might get some sleep toDnight
[Verse 3]
GRan down to the levee
But the Cdevil caught me there
GTook my twenty dollar bill
And Cvanished in the air
[Chorus]

AmA friend of the devil is a friend of mine
DI get home before daylight,
AmJust might get some sleep toDnight
[Bridge]
DGot two reasons why I cry away
Lonely night:
CFirst one's named sweet Anne Marie,
She's my heart's delight
DSecond one is prison, babe,
The sheriff's on my trail

I'll spend Cmy life in jaDil

But Cit don't look like me

DI get home before daylight,
AmJust might get some sleep toDnight
