The Devil Caught Me Nappin

Honey

Where were you last night?

Is you two-timing me?

How come you didn’t show up?

I don’t know how it done happened

The devil caught me nappin’

He must have come without a-rappin’

Without a-rappin’ on my door

And he done took me flirtin’

My honey, you can be certain

I didn’t mean to go hurtin’

And I ain’t gonna any more

My honey child

Won’t you believe me?

I’ll drive that devil far away

If he returns, he won’t deceive me

Cause I’ll just tell him;

“Come back another day”

I don’t know how it done happened

The devil caught me nappin’

He must have come without a-rappin’

Without a-rappin’ on my door

But he and I don’t talk no more

My honey child

Won’t you believe me?

I’ll drive that devil far away

If he returns, he won’t deceive me

Cause I’ll just tell him;

“He’ll have to come back some other day”

I don’t know how it done happened

The devil caught me nappin’

He must have come without a-rappin’

Without a-rappin’ on my door

But he and I don’t talk no more

Baby, is you sure?
