- The Silver Tongued Devil And I
I took myself down, to the Tally Ho Tavern To buy me a bottle of beer And I sat me down by a tender young maiden Whose eyes were as dark as her hair And as I was searching from bottle to bottle For somethin' unfoolish to say That silver tongued devil just slipped from the shadows And smilingly stole her away I said hey, little girl, don't you know, he's the devil He's ev'rything that I ain't Hidin' intentions of evil Under the smile of a saint All he's good for is gettin' in trouble And shiftin' his share of the blame And some people swear he's my double And some even say we're the same But the silver-tongued devil's got nothin' to lose And I'll only live till I die We take our own chances, and pay our own dues The silver tongued devil and I Like all the fair maidens who've laid down beside him She knew in her heart that he'd lied Nothin' that I could have said could have saved her No matter, how hard that she tried 'Cause she'll offer her charms, to the darkness and danger Of something that she's never known And open her arms at the smile of a stranger Who'll love her and leave her alone And you know he's the devil He's everything that I ain't Hidin' intentions of evil Under the smile of a saint All he's good for is gettin' in trouble And shiftin' his share of the blame And some people swear he's my double And some even say we're the same But the silver-tongued devil's got nothin' to lose I'll only live till I die We take our own chances, and pay our own dues The silver tongued devil and I
