"Friend of the Devil"
 That was the one–
 ♪
 I set out from Reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds
 I didn't get to sleep that night 'til the morning came around
 I set out runnin' but I take my time
 A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
 I get home before daylight
 I just might get some sleep tonight
 
 Ran into the devil, babe, he loaned me twenty bills
 Spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills
 I set out runnin' but I take my time
 A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
 I get home before daylight
 Just might get some sleep tonight
 
 I ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there
 He took my twenty dollar bill and he vanished in the air
 I set out runnin' but I take my time
 A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
 I get home before daylight
 I just might get some sleep tonight
 
 Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night
 The first one's named sweet Anne Marie, and she's my heart's delight
 The second one is prison, baby, the sheriff's on my trail
 And if he catches up with me, I'll spend my life in jail
 
 Got a wife in Chino, babe, and one in Cherokee
 The first one say she got my child, but it don't look like me
 I set out runnin' but I take my time
 A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
 If I get home before daylight
 Just might get some sleep tonight
