Grateful Dead - Friend Of The Devil lyrics

I lit out from reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds<br>Didn't get to sleep last night 'till the morning came around.<br><br>Set out runnin' but I take my time<br>A friend of the devil is a friend of mine<br>If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.<br><br>Ran into the devil, babe, he loaned me twenty bills<br>I spent the night in utah in a cave up in the hills.<br><br>Set out runnin' but I take my time, a friend of the devil is a friend of mine,<br>If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.<br><br>I ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there<br>He took my twenty dollar bill and vanished in the air.<br><br>Set out runnin' but I take my time<br>A friend of the devil is a friend of mine<br>If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.<br><br>Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night,<br>The first one's named sweet anne marie, and she's my hearts delight.<br>The second one is prison, babe, the sheriff's on my trail,<br>And if he catches up with me, I'll spend my life in jail.<br><br>Got a wife in chino, babe, and one in cherokee<br>The first one says she's got my child, but it don't look like me.<br><br>Set out runnin' but I take my time,<br>A friend of the devil is a friend of mine,<br>If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
