Way down in Virginia
Amongst the tall grown sugar canes
Lived a simple man and a Dominique hen
And a rose of a different name
Well, the first time that he felt lightning
He was standing in the drizzling rain
With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin
And a rose of a different name
He said, "The Devil made me do it the first time
The second time I done it on my own"
Lord, put a handle on a simple-headed man
Help me leave that black rose alone
ย
When the Devil made that woman
Lord, He threw the pattern away
She was built for speed with the tools you need
To make a new fool every day
Now a way down deep and dirty
On the darkest side of shame
You find that cane-cut man doing it again
With that rose of a different name
He said, "The devil made me do it the first time
The second time I done it on my own"
Lord, put a handle on a simple handed man
Help me leave that black rose alone
"Yeah, the Devil made me do it the first time
Second time I done it on my own"
Lord, put a handle on a simple-headed man
Help me leave that black rose alone

Oh, hi, Kimberly, it's Billy Joe
Will you give me a call? Have you ate breakfast yet? I guess you'll call
Anyway, give me a call if you can, right, bye
