Me and the Devil Lyrics

Early this morning
When you knocked upon my door
Early this morning
When you knocked upon my door
And I say: hello Satan
I believe, it's time to go

Me and the Devil
Walking side by side
Me and the Devil
Walking side by side
And I'm gonna see my woman
'Til I get satisfied

See See, you don't see why
Like you'a dog me 'round
Say, I don't see why
People dogging me around
It must be that old evil spirit
So deep down in the ground

You may bury my body
Down by the highway side
You may bury my body
Down by the highway side
So my old evil spirit can
Catch a Greyhound bus and ride

Standing in the ruins of another black man's life
Or flying through the valley separating day and night
"I am death!" cried the vulture, "for the people of the light"

Charon brought his raft from the sea that sails on souls
And saw the scavenger departing, taking warm hearts to the cold
He knew the ghetto was a haven for the meanest creature ever known

In the wilderness of heartbreak and a desert of despair
Evil's clarion of justice shrieks a cry of naked terror
Taking babies from their mamas, leaving grief beyond compare

So if you see the vulture coming, flying circles in your mind
Remember there is no escaping for he will follow close behind
Only promise me a battle, a battle for your soul and mine
And mine
And mine
