Lyrics

Early this morning When you knocked upon my door Early this morning When you knocked upon my door An' I say: Hello Satan, I believe it's time to go Me and the Devil Walking side by side Me and the Devil Walking side by side And I'm gonna see my woman 'Til I get satisfied See, see; you don't see why Like you'a dog me 'round Say, I don't see why People dawging me around It must be that old, evil spirit That drop me down in the ground You may bury my body Down by the highway side You may bury my body Down by the highway side So my old, evil spirit Can greyhound bus that ride
