Me And The Devil Lyrics

Gil Scott-heron & Makaya Mccraven Me And The Devil

[Verse 1]
Early this morning
When you knocked upon my door
Early this morning
When you knocked upon my door
And I say: "Hello Satan"
I believe, it's time to go

[Chorus]
Me and the Devil
Walking side by side
Me and the Devil
Walking side by side

[Verse 2]
And I'm gonna see my woman
'Til I get satisfied
See, you don't see why
Like you're a dog me 'round
Say, I don't see why
People dogging me around
It must be that old evil spirit

[Chorus]
Me and the Devil
Walking side by side
Me and the Devil
Walking side by side

[Verse 3]
That spirit drop me down in your ground
You may bury my body
Down by the highway side
You may bury my body
Down by the highway side
So my old evil spirit
Can greyhound bus that ride
