Blues and the Devil
03:37

|||
My eyelids they feel
So heavy tonight
I let them drag
On the floor
And the liquor in my blood
Left a dry taste in my mouth
So I packed up
And headed down south
When I reached the delta
I unlocked my case
And sang the blues with the devil
Till the break of day
Now every night
I come back to that place
Becoming that
Which cannot be saved
At the crossroads
I lost my soul
My ticket in
But I paid the toll
So eternity I'll spend
Six strings in my hands
These songs
Are all I know
Well I quenched my thirst
And dodged every hearse
No human
Could lift this curse
They took me down
To the river front
And washed me clean
But it's the devil they want
Now free from sin
They locked me in
A cell
With no way out
I'm alone with a window
At the top of the wall
Where every night
I hear them call
At the crossroads
I lost my soul
My ticket in
But I paid the toll
So eternity I'll spend
Six strings in my hands
These songs
Are all I know
