Lyrics
0:09Devil walks behind you
0:14Sneakin' ever ready to steal your world away
0:22No matter what you mean to
0:28He'll have you saying things you really should not say
0:36It's not that I'm a bad man
0:39Had my good intentions just like all the rest
0:47But when he gets behind you
0:51It's hard to see for real it's hard to know what's best
0:58But just 'cause I missed it
1:02No need to get all bitter 'n twisted
1:08Pocket full of promises
1:12But promises don't buy your things or pay your way
1:20I had it my palm girl
1:24Now there's just an empty hand down there today
1:32But just 'cause I missed it
1:34No need to get all bitter 'n twisted
1:39I said just 'cause I missed it
1:42No need to get all bitter 'n twisted
1:53I tried to walk the straight line
1:57Tried to pass the swingin' door on my way home
2:04I thought about the good things
2:08Then I thought about the bad things too and was undone
2:16I miss my wife and kids now
2:22Miss all the little things we used to do and say
2:30Devil walks behind you
2:35Sneakin' ever ready to steal your soul away
2:43But just 'cause I missed it
2:46No need to get all bitter 'n twisted
2:51I said just 'cause I missed it
2:54No need to get all bitter 'n twisted No need to get all bitter 'n twisted
Devil walks behind you Sneakin' ever ready to steal your world away No matter what you mean to He'll have you saying things you really should not say It's not that I'm a bad man Had my good intentions just like all the rest But when he gets behind you It's hard to see for real it's hard to know what's best But just 'cause I missed it No need to get all bitter 'n twisted Pocket full of promises But promises don't buy your things or pay your way I had it my palm girl Now there's just an empty hand down there today But just 'cause I missed it No need to get all bitter 'n twisted I said just 'cause I missed it No need to get all bitter 'n twisted I tried to walk the straight line Tried to pass the swingin' door on my way home I thought about the good things Then I thought about the bad things too and was undone I miss my wife and kids now Miss all the little things we used to do and say Devil walks behind you Sneakin' ever ready to steal your soul away But just 'cause I missed it No need to get all bitter 'n twisted I said just 'cause I missed it No need to get all bitter 'n twisted No need to get all bitter 'n twisted
