I'd Rather Be The Devil (Devil Got My Woman) - John Martyn

I’d rather be the devil

Than I would be my woman’s man

Yes, I’d rather be the devil

Than I would be my woman’s man

'Cause nothing but the devil

Knows my baby

Nothing but the devil

Knows my baby

Nothing but the devil

Knows my baby’s mind

Well, I lay down last night

And I was trying to take my rest

Yes I lay down last night

I was trying to take my rest

But my mind starts a-rambling

Like the wild geese in the

My mind starts a-rambling

Like the wild geese in the

My mind starts a-rambling

Like the wild geese in the west

Yes the woman I love

Oh, she’s evil all the time

Yeah, the woman I love

Oh, she’s evil all the time

Studied so much evil

Just to have it on

So much evil

Just to have it on

So much evil

Just to have it on her mind

The woman that I love

Stole her from my best friend

The woman I love

I stole her from my best friend

But I know he’ll get lucky

Steal her back

I know he’ll get lucky

Try to steal her back

I know he’ll get lucky

Steal her back again
