Now, my baby wasn't even decided 

About our weddin' ring 

When it come to our marryin' 

It didn't seem to 'mount to a other thing

But I been dealin' with the devil 

I been dealin' with the devil 

I believe I been dealin' with the devil 

My woman don't love me, no mo' 

Well now, I've got the meanest woman 

The meanest woman you most ev'r seen 

She sleep wit a ice pick in her hand 

Man, an she fights all in her dream 

I sooner be sleepin' with the devil 

I sooner be sleepin' with the devil 

I sooner be sleepin' with the devil 

My woman don't love me, no mo' 

Now, my mother, she said one thing 

You know an then father said the same 

'You keep on foolin' 'round, Sonny Boy 

'Women, really gon' change your name'

I been dealin' with the devil 

I been dealin' with the devil 

I been dealin' with the devil 

My woman don't love me, no mo' 

(harmonica) 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! 

Ah, you know I been havin' 

You know, little, you know, friendly 

Just friendly with the devil , you know 

Yeah, but I got in little trouble 

I don't do that no mo', watch! 

(harmonica) 

Now baby, you know I ain't goin' down 

You know, this big road by myself 

Now, an if I can't take you 

I'm gonna carry somebody else 

Because I been dealin' with the devil, now 

I been dealin' with the devil 

I been dealin' with the devil 

A-my woman don't love me, no mo' 

(harmonica, piano & drums to end)
