Lyrics
I made a deal with the devil
The night before last
It was down in the hollow
The river was rolling fast
The timberwolves were howling
His hand felt so cold
I made a deal with the devil for my soul
In a tavern in Wyoming
Is where I first saw Slim
With his jailhouse tattoo and his gold tooth grin
Ten miles outside of Cheyenne
Is where I dug his hole
I made a deal with the devil for my soul
I saw a ring of fire down in the hollow
I saw cabin and a lantern over there
I saw the ghost of my father
By the gravestone of my mother
With fire in his hair
Kansas came and went,
Like some nomadic dream
It was out on the borderline
I heard someone scream
There are hellhounds on my trail
There are witches in the knoll
I made a deal with the devil for my soul
Jesus O' Jesus
Lord what have I done
I have lived a life of sin
And it can't be undone
Maybe someday soon like Judas
I'll be hanging from a rope
I made a deal with the devil for my soul
There's blood in the moonlight
There's whiskey in my jar
No matter how far you run
He always knows where you are
He's around every corner
He's at the end of every road
I made a deal with the devil for my soul
Someday soon, I will have to pay I know
I made a deal with the devil for my soul
