A Day With the Devil

Lyrics:
I left here this morning, my feet hot on the ground
Swore I wasn't comin' back, we fought our final round
And a stranger offered me a ride, so I took him up and climbed on inside
He said I got some things to do, I hope that you don't mind
I figured what's the difference I had lots of time
When I seen his eyes, I sank in disbelief
I was ridin' with the devil and I watched him do his deeds
He told that Lonely man to keep drinkin', Simple child to just stop thinkin',
And begged the wife to cheat, And he cursed the farmer's land
Told that sick old soul to just give up, Teenage boy to take that puff
And whispered to me "Let Go of Her Hand"
He said I can't keep you here, no not against your will
But go ahead and leave that girl and see how good it feels
Boy you know this world's a big ole place
And Love's not really real anyways
Life don't last forever, so you oughta roll the dice
You know I'd never tell a lie, just take my advice
But I'd seen enough, and I told him we were through
I said "Go to Hell, There's some things I need to Do"
I told that Lonely man to quit drinkin', Simple child to just keep thinkin',
Begged the wife to pray, God bless the farmer's land
Told that sick old soul to not give in, Teenage boy to run from sin
And came back home to take you by the hand
I know I can be a better man
