Early this morning, he knocked on my door
Early this morning he knocked on my door
I said 'hello, satan, I believe it's time to go'


Me and the devil are walkin' side by side
Me and the devil are walkin' side by side

Well, I'm goin' to beat my man until I get satisfied

He says I don't do him right

That I dog him around
Well, babe, you know you ain't treating me right
He says I don't do him right



That I dog him around

Well, it must be this old evil spirit
So deep down within the ground


You may bury my body down by the highway side
...oh, babe I don't care what you do with my body
You may bury my body down by the highway side

So my old evil spirit can catch a greyhound bus and ride

Early this morning, he knocked on my door

Now me and the devil are walking side by side
Side by side
