Lyrics
"Devil In My Bed"
Words & Music by Dan Lowe

(Verse 1)
When I woke up this morning
Lord knows I had those weary bones
When I woke up this morning
Lord knows I had those weary bones
I never felt so deep downhearted
Just had to weep because I felt so all alone
(Verse 2)
And when I laid down this evening
I thought I heard the devil call my name
When I laid down this evening
Could've sworn I heard the devil call my name
Kinda sounded like the lonesome whistle blowin'
On a long old empty train
(Instrumental)
(Verse 3)
Hope I don't wake up tomorrow
To find the devil in my bed
Don't wanna wake up tomorrow
And find the devil in my bed
I pray I make it into heaven
Least half an hour before the devil even knows I'm dead
(Verse 4)
'Cause when I laid down this evening
Could've sworn I heard the devil call my name
Yeah, when I laid down this evening
I believe I heard the devil call my name
You know, it sounded like the lonesome whistle blowin'
On a long old empty train
(Instrumental)
