Lyrics:
Well the devil went out last Saturday night, 
Had three quarts of whiskey was feeling alright, 
Shacked up with a dopehead out on freemont street, 
Where the money's good but the living ain't so sweet, 

I met 'em downtown in a honky tonk bar,
We went 500 miles in a stolen car,
And we stared into madness but she turned away, 
Now she reads about it in the paper every day 

And oh the devil can't change it and wouldn't try anyway,
But livin' fast ain't bein' free,
For the dopehead, the devil and me

Monkey suits on at the human zoo,
Got a shit load of money, Lord and nothing to do,
And he left this morning going a little too slow, 
To find out something only lost boys know 

And crazy Davey won't be back for a while,
He  didn't have a lot to say but he said it in style, 
On average Suzuki bike at a hairpin bend,
Where he'll die like the devil with a Bible in his hand

And oh the devil can't change it and wouldn't try anyway,
But livin' fast ain't bein' free,
For the dopehead, the devil and me

Well the midnight gang's in a hometown jam,
With a wooden legged hooker on a one night stand,
And they're out on corner of fifth avenue, 
And God knows they know just what to do, 

And Molly be damned said to old Jimmy, 
"Livin' on the road ain't all it's cracked up to be, 
Been 21 days and there's holes in my shoes,
Trying to shake away these New York blues"

And oh the devil can't change it and wouldn't try anyway,
But livin' fast ain't bein' free,
For the dopehead, the devil and me

The Dopehead, The Devil And Me

Country tinged, roots rock from the ragged heart of the West Midlands
