Lyrics
DEVIL?S DOLLARS
IF THE DEVIL WOULD GIVE ME DOLLARS
MY SOUL WOULDN?T BE WORTH A DIME
IF THE DEVIL WOULD GIVE ME DOLLARS
I?D BE LIVIN? HIGH FOR THE REST OF MY TIME
IF THE DEVIL WOULD GIVE ME DOLLARS
I?D LOOK HIM IN THE EYE
TAKE THOSE DOLLARS BILLS
KISS MY SOUL GOOD BYE
I WENT DOWN TO THE JUNCTION, LOOKIN? FOR THE DEAL
I WENT DOWN TO THE JUNCTION, DOWN TO MY LAST MEAL
TALKED TO THE MAN IN BLACK, SAID HE?D MAKE ME RICH TODAY
SAID I?D NEVER HAVE TO PAY HIM BACK, HE SMILED AND WALKED AWAY
I COULD TELL BY THE LOOK ON HIS FACE, I?D PAY DOUBLE SOMEDAY
?I?M LOOKIN? FOR A WOMAN?, HE SAID ?YOU TAKE ANYONE YOU CHOOSE?
I?M LOOKIN? FOR A GOOD WOMAN, HE SAID ?PICK ONE YOU?LL NEVER LOSE?
I PICKED A REAL GOOD WOMAN, OH SHE LOOKED SO FINE
HE GAVE ME A REAL GOOD WOMAN, I COULD SEE THE GLEEM IN HIS EYES
BET WHEN I?M DEAD AND GONE, SHE?LL BE STANDIN? BY HIS SIDE
IF THE DEVIL WOULD GIVE ME DOLLARS
MY SOUL WOULDN?T BE WORTH A DIME
IF THE DEVIL WOULD GIVE ME DOLLARS
I?D BE LIVIN? HIGH FOR THE REST OF MY TIME
IF THE DEVIL WOULD GIVE ME DOLLARS
I?D LOOK HIM IN THE EYE
GRAB THOSE DOLLAR BILLS
KISS MY SOUL GOOD BYE
I?M GONNA NEED A GOOD JOB, HE SAID ?YOU?LL HAVE MONEY TO BURN?
YOU WON?T NEED TO WORK A DAY AND FIRST WILL ALWAYS BE YOUR TURN
I?M TALKIN? TO THE MAN IN BLACK WHO?S MAKIN? ME RICH TODAY
I?LL NEVER HAVE TO PAY HIM BACK, HE SMILED AND WALKED AWAY
I COULD TELL BY THE LOOK IN HIS EYE, I?D PAY DOUBLE SOMEDAY
IF THE DEVIL WOULD GIVE ME DOLLARS
MY SOUL WOULDN?T BE WORTH A DIME
IF THE DEVIL WOULD GIVE ME DOLLARS
I?D BE LIVIN? HIGH FOR THE REST OF MY TIME
IF THE DEVIL WOULD GIVE ME DOLLARS
I?D LOOK HIM IN THE EYE
GRAB THOSE DOLLAR BILLS
KISS MY SOUL GOOD BYE
