DEVIL GOT MY WOMAN        Skip James
Tunig: D modal (D G D G B D)


I'd rather be the devil than be my woman's mind,

I'd rather be the devil than be my woman's mind,

'Coz nothing but the devil knows my baby's mind.



Woman I love, stole her from my best friend,
Woman I love, stole her from my best friend,
But maybe he'll get lucky, and steal her back again,



Woman I love studies evil all the time,
Woman I love studies evil all the time,
Yes, she studies so much evil as to have it on her mid,



Lay down last night trying to take my  rest,
Lay down last night trying to take my  rest,
But my mind took to wandering like wild geese in the west.


Repeat first verse.
