The Devil You Know Songtext
I see her Tuesday evening….comes in and gets a light
Sometime on the weekend, mostly late at night
I could not help but ask her, we might spend some time
She said it was not likely, and she told me why

She said the devil you know, he's the devil you don't
I'm in between a hard place and a rock
The devil you know, he's the devil you don't
I'm gonna stick with the devil I got…
I'm gonna stick with the devil I got

[vocalization: old field-holler line from “Rolling and Tumbling”]

The devil that I know's a cheater and a liar
Now why would I go jumping from the pan into the fire?
But if I knew you better…get on your knees and pray
When you dance with the devil, you only have hell to pay

She said the devil you know, he's the devil you don't
I'm in between a hard place and a rock
The devil you know, he's the devil you don't
I'm gonna stick with the devil I got…
I'm gonna stick with the devil I got
Yeah

The devil you know is the devil you don't

The devil you know is the devil you don't

The devil you know is the devil you don't
