lyrics

when i went home last night, saw the devil walkin’, walkin’ by my side
yeah i went home last night, saw the devil walkin’, walkin’ by my side
when i shut my front door, he must’ve slipped inside

when i went home last night, felt so weary, felt so tired
yeah i went home last night, saw the devil walkin’, walkin’ by my side
i thought the wine had fooled my eyes, now i know, i know that i was right

‘cause when I woke up this mornin’ felt something heavy on my chest
oh I woke up this mornin’, felt something heavy sittin’ on my chest
it was the devil with a grin and his name was selfishness

now i'm strollin’ ‘round baby, ‘strollin’ round - lookin’ for your window
yeah im strollin’ ‘round baby, ‘strollin’ round - lookin’ for an open door
but anywhere i go baby, see the devil ‘s been there, been there before

we needa shake off the devil, baby, he’ll make you tie, tie the noose
we needa shake off the devil, baby, or you can only, only lose
shake, shake off the devil, baby - that’s why, why i play the blues
