Now, my baby wasn't even decided 
About our weddin' ring 
When [bad word] to our marryin' 
It didn't seem to 'mount to a other thing 

But I been dealin' with the devil 
I been dealin' with the devil 
I believe I been dealin' with the devil 
My woman don't love me, no mo' 

Well now, I've got the meanest woman 
The meanest woman you most ev'r seen 
She sleep wit a ice pick in her hand 
Man, an she fights all in her dream 

I sooner be sleepin' with the devil 
I sooner be sleepin' with the devil 
I sooner be sleepin' with the devil 
My woman don't love me, no mo' 

Now, my mother, she said one thing 
You know an then father said the same 
'You keep on foolin' 'round, Sonny Boy 
'Women, really gon' change your name' 

I been dealin' with the devil 
I been dealin' with the devil 
I been dealin' with the devil 
My woman don't love me, no mo' 

(harmonica) 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! 

Ah, you know I been havin' 
You know, little, you know, friendly 
Just friendly with the devil , you know 

Yeah, but I got in little trouble 
I don't do that no mo', watch! 

(harmonica) 

Now baby, you know I ain't goin' down 
You know, this big road by myself 
Now, an if I can't take you 
I'm gonna carry somebody else 

Because I been dealin' with the devil, now 
I been dealin' with the devil 
I been dealin' with the devil 
A-my woman don't love me, no mo' 

(harmonica, piano & [bad word] to end)
