From the recordings Dust Bowl and Devil's Due
Lyrics
Devil's riding shotgun on my shoulder
angel sitting on the other side
both of them vie for my attention
both of them lending advice
should I take a left turn now baby
should I take the one I know is right
one of them might lead me to salvation
the other just might get me through the night
I still got some secrets I ain't ever told you baby
but sooner or later we all gotta choose
talk is cheap and when it all goes down
you still got to give the devil his due
Devil say's "boy you know you want it"
angel says "son you better pass"
when you're hell bent for self destruction
it's hard to take your foot off the gas
wind is blowing cold outside my window
singing me a sad and lonesome tale
of loneliness and desperation
and lover's dreams shot to hell
