Текст (слова) песни: Counting Crows - Friend of the Devil
(Garcia/Hunter/Dawson)
I lit out from Reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds Didn`t get to sleep that night `Till the morning came around.
Set out runnin` but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
Ran into the devil, babe, He loaned me twenty bills I spent the night in Utah In a cave up in the hills.
Set out runnin` but I take my time, A friend of the devil is a friend of mine, If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
I ran down to the levee But the devil caught me there He took my twenty dollar bill And vanished in the air.
Set out runnin` but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
Got two reasons why I cry Away each lonely night, The first one`s named Sweet Anne Marie, And she`s my hearts delight. The second one is prison, baby, The sheriff`s on my trail, And if he catches up with me, I`ll spend my life in jail.
Got a wife in Chino, babe, And one in Cherokee The first one says she`s got my child, But it don`t look like me. Set out runnin` but I take my time, A friend of the devil is a friend of mine, If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
Extra Verse
You can borrow from the devil You can borrow from a friend The devil`ll loan ya twenty But your friend got only ten
