Late last night, I sat down by the River side
Late last night, I sat down by the River side
I ain’t got a woman, can’t never be satisfied

I saw the devil, you know he came right up to me
I saw the devil, you know he came right up to me
He gave me this guitar, said ‘hey man that’s all you need’
That’s all you need

I said that mean old devil, gone and made a fool out of me
I said that mean old devil, gone and made a fool right out of me
He stole my soul, and now he won’t ever leave me be

He got them hell hounds, them hell hounds on my trail
He got them hell hounds, them hell hounds on my trail
And when they get your scent, they ain’t never gonna fail

Late last night
I sat down
By the river side
Hang my head and cried

Late last night
I sat down
By the river side
Hang my head and cried

I hang my head and cried

Yeah
