Jamie O'Neal - Devil On The Left lyrics

Down in the Delta there's a tattoo parlor

With a black and white picture hangin' on the wall

Oh, oh of a stripper

The men are still talkin' 'bout the rainy night she walked in

Took off her shirt like it was nothin' at all

Oh, oh what a picture

Everyone assumed she'd been drinkin'

When she pointed to her shoulders

And said, boys, here's what I'm thinkin'

Put a devil on the left, an angel on the right

I'm already livin' in the middle of the fight

And round and round and round and round it goes

Part of me's in heaven, part of me's in hell

Part of me is strugglin' tryin' to find my way through life

With a devil on the left and an angel on the right

Down in the Delta there's a rundown chapel

With a worn out floor where a preacher used to pray

Oh, oh for the stripper

While right across the street they were packed in tight

Just a-pushin' and a-shovin', sweatin' by the stage

Oh, oh to tip her

She brought a lot of men to their knees

But only one of them was thinkin'

Lord, won't you help her please

She's got a devil on the left, an angel on the right

They've got her dancin' in the middle of the fight

And round and round and round and round she goes

Part of her's in heaven, part of her's in hell

Part of her is strugglin' trying to find her way through life

With a devil on the left and an angel on the right

In a cornfield in Kansas there's a little yellow house

With a white picket fence going all the way around

Oh, oh mama what's that on your shoulders

No, no, no child, maybe when you're older

Now there's an angel on the left, an angel on the right

Ring around the rosie underneath the open sky

And round and round and round and round

Round and round and round and round they go
