Bessie Smith - Devil's Gonna Get You Lyrics
It's a long, long lane that has no turningAnd it's a fire that always keeps on burningMister devil down belowPitchfork in his handAnd that's where you are going to goDo you understand?Devil's gonna git youDevil's gonna git youOh, the devil's gonna git youMan, just as sure as you's bornDevil's gonna git you,Devil's gonna git you,Oh, the devil's gonna git you,The way you're carryin' onYou go away, stay for weeksOn your doggone spreeCome back home, get in my bedAnd turn your back on meOh the devil's gonna git youI mean the devil's gonna git youMan the devil' sgonna git youSure as you's bornDirty two-timer, dirty two-timer,Dirty two-timer, you ain't coming cleanOh the devil's gonna git youI mean the devil's gonna git youOh the devil's gonna git youYou know what I meanI don't want no two-time stuffFrom my regular manDon't want nothing that's been used'Cause it's second-handThe devil's gonna git youOh the devil's gonna git youMan the devil's gonna git youSure as you're born to die
