Black River lyrics

Get out while you can

Black River runnin' through our lane

Get out, baby, run

They'll press a bullet on your neck for fun

Don't the devil never take a day off, damn

Don't the devil never take a day off, damn

Get out while you can

No sleep for the repo man

Get out with your pride

Pretty things ain't gonna buy you a dime

And don't the devil never take a day off, damn

Don't the devil never take a day off, damn

Devil at my window

Devil at my door

Devil, make it easy

Devil, give me more

Devil at my window

Devil at my door

Devil, make it easy

Devil, give me more

Black river, oh

Black river, oh

Get out of the fire

They'll burn you out with a crooked smile

Get off that supply

They'll call you out like a king on trial

And try to pay the devil, take a day off, damn

Just get out while you can

Get on out that ring

They'll cut you down, little puppet string

Back beneath the skin

Countin' cash, stacking up that sin

And don't the devil never take a day off, damn

Just get out while you can, oh

Devil at my window

Devil at my door

Devil, make it easy

Devil, give me more

Devil at my window

Devil at my door

Devil, make it easy

Devil, give me more

Black river, oh

Black river, oh

Give me black, black, black, black river

Black, black, black river
