Billy Joe Shaver - The Devil Made Me Do It the First Time - Luckenbach Session lyrics

Artist: Billy Joe Shaver

album: The Devil Made Me Do It the First Time (Luckenbach Session)


Way down in Louisiana
Amongst the tall grown sugar canes
Lived a simple man and a Dominicker hen and a rose of a different name
Yeah, the first time I felt lightning
I was standing in the drizzling rain
With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin and a rose of a different name
Yeah, the devil made me do it the first time
The second time, I've done it on my own
Lord, put a handle on a simple handed man
Help me leave that black rose alone


When the devil made that woman
Hey Lord, he threw the pattern away
'Cause she was built for speed with the tools you need
To make a new fool every day
Here a way down deep and dirty
Here on the darkest side of shame
You find this cane razor man doing it again with that rose of a different name
Yeah, the devil made me do it the first time
The second time I done it on my own
Lord, put a handle on a simple handed man
Help me leave that black rose alone
Yeah, the devil made me do it the first time
The second time I done it on my own
Oh Lord, put a handle on a simple handed man
Help me leave that black rose 'lone
