You know I'd rather be the devil,
You know I'd rather be the devil,
than be a woman to that man
You know I'd rather be the devil,
than be a woman to that man
You know I'm so sorry
You know I'm so sorry
that I 've fallen in love with you
because now you don't treat me
better than the way you used to do
I laid down last night,
you know I laid down last night
then I tried to take me some rest
but my mind got a-ramblin',
like a wild geese in the west
You know the man that I love
You know the man that I love
I 've stolen from my best friend
You know that she got lucky,
and he have stolen back again
You know my babe don't like whisky
You know my babe don't like whisky
I know he crazy about wine
you know that nothing but the devil
has changed my baby's mind
You know that I might be right
You know that I might be right
than again I might be wrong
you know that nothing but the devil
he had got my baby and gone
you know that nothing but the devil
he had got my baby and gone
