Lyrics for Song: The Devil Had a Hold of Me
Lyrics for Album: Hell Amoung the Yearlings [1998]
Now I was just a girl of two
Now I was just a girl of two
With a golden heart and a button shoe.
The devil had a hold of me
The devil had a hold of me
I turned my head and I could see
The devil had a hold of me.
There was something wrong with the butcher's boy
Was something wrong with the butcher's boy
He trembled in his hand and voice.
The devil had a hold of me
The devil had a hold of me
The others knew to let him be
But the devil had a hold of me.
Now the tailpipe spit and the engine roared
The tailpipe spit and the engine roared
I's waving out the Plymouth door.
And the devil had a hold of me
The devil had a hold of me
The old folks saw the last they'd see
The devil had a hold of me.
I dreamed last night that my time was done
I dreamed last night that my time was done
And my soul flew up to the holy son.
But the devil had a hold of me
The devil had a hold of me
I snapped back down when he pulled my lead
The devil had a hold of me.
There're those who'll laugh and not believe
There're those who'll laugh and not believe
Until you feel that touch upon your sleeve.
The devil had a hold of me
The devil had a hold of me
I turned my head and I could see
The devil had a hold of me.
I turned my head and I could see
The devil had a hold of me...
