lyrics

Hard times are bleeding me
I can’t help but feeling down
The only thing that’s left for me
Is the bottle and it's gone now
The Devil said he’d drink with me
Just as long as I got the tab

Hard times are bleeding me
I can’t help but feeling down
Ain't got nowhere to run to
Ain't got nowhere to call my home
The only thing that’s left for me
is the bottle and it's gone now
The devil said he’d drink with me
just as long as I got the tab

CHORUS
The devil said he’d drink with me
The devil said he’d drink with me
The devil said he’d drink with me
Just as long as I got the tab

The devils got it in for me
The devils got it in for me
The devils got it in for me
But he’ll just have to Stand in line

Got one foot in the grave
And the other foot pressed hard on the gas
If you live too fast you die too young
And the whiskey lord won’t ya keep it comin
I’d sell my soul if the price was right
to the first one who threw down their cash
The devil’s got it in for me
But he’ll just have to stand in line

CHORUS
The devil said he’d drink with me
The devil said he’d drink with me
The devil said he’d drink with me
Just as long as I got the tab

The devils got it in for me
The devils got it in for me
The devils got it in for me
But he’ll just have to stand in line
