All right
VERSE 1
I’d like to quit drinkin’
And sometimes I’m thinkin’
I take things a little too far
There’s fightin’ and cussin’
And the law gets to fussin’
But maybe that’s just who I are
I go somewhat crazy
When the world’s a bit hazy
No telling what trouble I’ll get
I’d turn around on a dime
But I don’t think it’s time
‘Cause the devil ain’t done with me yet
(Ha ha ha – you’re gonna regret)
CHORUS 1
No, the devil ain’t done with me yet
Seems like I’m his favorite pet
He says to me stay, let me lead you astray
There’s still time to forgive and forget
There’s no telling what might come forth
Before my moral compass points north
But until that day’s here
I’ll have that next beer
‘Cause the devil ain’t done with me yet
VERSE 2
I’d like to quit lyin’
But I just stopped tryin’
It avoids being met with much wrath
And I could quit cheatin’
And stop over-eatin’
But I still walk down my primrose path
There’s been plenty of women
And gamblin’ and sinnin’
And I haven’t placed my last bet
Some day I’ll be holy
I’m approaching it slowly
But the devil ain’t done with me yet
(Oh boy – you better look out now)
CHORUS 2
No, the devil ain’t done with me yet
Seems like I’m his favorite pet
He says to me stay, let me lead you astray
There’s still time to forgive and forget
There’s no telling what might come forth
Before my moral compass points north
But until that day’s here
I’ll have that next beer
‘Cause the devil ain’t done with me yet
INSTRUMENTAL SOLOS
CHORUS 2
No, the devil ain’t done with me yet
Seems like I’m his favorite pet
He says to me stay, let me lead you astray
There’s still time to forgive and forget
There’s no telling what might come forth
Before my moral compass points north
But until that day’s here
I’ll have that next beer
Something I know I’ll soon regret
But before my soul is sent, I’m sure I’ll repent
But the devil ain’t done with me yet
(Hm Hm Hm Hm)
