Me and the Devil was walking side by side 
Me and the Devil was walking side by side 
I'm goin' to beat my woman until I get satisfied 
 
She say you don't see why that I will dog her 'round 
She say you don't see why that I will dog her 'round 
It must be that ol' evil spirit so deep down in the ground 
 
You my burn my body down by the highway side 
You my burn my body down by the highway side 
So my old evil spirit can get a Greyhound bus and ride
