| D C D I lit out from Reno I was trailed by twenty hounds Didn't get to sleep that night Till the morning came around [Chorus] D Am 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, babe He loaned me twenty bills I spent the night in Utah In a cave up in the hills [Chorus] I ran down to the levee But the Devil caught me there He took my twenty dollar bill And he vanished in the air [Chorus] [Bridge] D Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night C The first one's named sweet Anne Marie and she's my hearts delight D The second one is prison, babe, the sheriff's on my trail Am C D And if he catches up with me, I'll spend my life in jail Got a wife in Chino, babe And one in Cherokee First one says she's got my child But it don't look like me [Chorus] [Solo] Got a wife in Chino, babe And one in Cherokee First one says she's got my child But it don't look like me [Chorus] |
