00:26I live out for freedom
00:30I was a trail by twenty hounds
00:32I didn't get to sleep last night
00:36Till the morning came around
00:38I said I'm running but I take my time
00:42A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
00:46If I get home before daylight
00:49I just might get some sleep tonight
00:57Well I ran into the devil
01:01He loaned me twenty bills
01:05Spent the night in Utah
01:07He came up in the hills
01:10I said I'm running but I take my time
01:14A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
01:18If I get home before daylight
01:20I just might get some sleep tonight
01:29Well I ran down to the levee
01:33But the devil caught me there
01:35I took my twenty dollar bill
01:39And he vanished in the air
01:42I said I'm running but I take my time
01:46A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
01:49If I get home before daylight
01:52I just might get some sleep tonight
02:01I got two reasons why I cry
02:05Wait each lonely night
02:08The first one's named Sweet Aunt Marie
02:11She's my heart delight
02:14Second one is Prison Baby
02:18Sheriff's on my trail
02:21If he catches up to me
02:23I spend my life in jail
02:30I have got a wife in Chino Baby
02:34And one in Cherokee
02:37But the first one said
02:39She got my child
02:41But he don't look like me
02:44I said I'm running but I take my time
02:48A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
02:51If I get home before daylight
02:54I just might get some sleep tonight
03:01Come on Charlie
03:08God is rules
03:08And I'll put it in the air
03:37I cry with each lonely night
03:40And the first one's named Sweet Ann Marie
03:43She's one of my delight
03:47Second one is prison, baby
03:50The sheriff's on my trail
03:53If he catches up to me
03:56I'll spend my life in jail
04:02Said I have got a wife in Chino, baby
04:06I got one in Cherokee
04:09And the first one said that she got my child
04:13But it does not look like me
04:15I sit out running, but I take my time
04:20A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
04:23If I get home before daylight
04:26I just might get some sleep tonight
04:38Thank you very much
04:40Thank you very much
