Friend of the Devil Lyle Lovett

[Verse 1]
I lit out from Reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds
I didn't get to sleep that night 'til the morning came around

[Chorus]
I 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

[Verse 2]
I ran into the devil and he loaned me twenty bills
I spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills

[Chorus]
I 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

[Verse 3]
I ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there
He took my twenty dollar bill and he vanished in the air

[Chorus]
I 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
