North Carolina - The Devil Makes Three

Sweet demon North Carolina

Gave your daughter to me She left me on that corner starin'

Knocked the wind outta me Well dime to a dollar now, and that dollar back to a dime

I’m wonderin' how I been wasting all that precious time

I just been sitting down here on that railway line

Thinkin' about what used to be mine

Girl, I’m just sittin' down here wonderin' why

Just watchin' days like hours all fly on by

I’m just sitting 'round here with my head in my hand,

Wonderin' how many years it’s been

Singin'…

Sweet demon North Carolina

Gave your daughter to me She left me on that corner starin'

Knocked the wind outta me Well if I’d a known that things woulda ended up this way

I would have never left my happy home anyway

I would’ve stayed down on my bended knees and prayed

Hopin' I would never see this day

Girl, I’m just sittin' down here wonderin' why

Just watchin' days like hours all click on by

I’m just sitting 'round here with my head in my hand,

Wonderin' how many years it’s been

Singin'

Sweet demon North Carolina

Gave your daughter to me She left me on that corner starin'

Knocked the wind outta me
