Song language: English
By the Devil I Was Tempted |
| I’ve done a lot of laughing |
| A little bit of crying |
| I’ve been a lot of places |
| And made a mess of friends |
| Got wedded to the whisky |
| Should’ve been a good woman |
| If I could re-live my days |
| Changing my ways |
| I’d not touch' a drop again |
| By the devil I was tempted |
| And many jugs I’ve emptied |
| I felt so rejected |
| I didn’t wanna go astray |
| Half my life has been awasted |
| By the booze I’ve tasted |
| But the demon I have faced it |
| And sent him on his way |
| I hope I’ll be forgiven |
| For all my bad livin' |
| I had to make some changes |
| 'Fore he got me in the end |
| Now I’ve got a pretty woman |
| She gives me good lovin' |
| I can 't re-live all my days in a different way |
| But I won’t go astray again |
| By the devil I was tempted |
| And many jugs I’ve emptied |
| I felt so rejected |
| I didn’t wanna go astray |
| Half my life has been awasted |
| By the booze I’ve tasted |
| But the demon I have faced it |
| And sent him on his way |
