Angel Is The Devil lyrics

Song information

Artist: Steve Earle

Lyrics

Everybody call her angel
She's no stranger to the devil I know
His mark is on her body
His fire's burnin' in her soul
When we're makin' love
He's laughin' at us down below
She's the devil I know

Chorus
She's the devil I know
She's the devil I know
Said she come from heaven
Angel is the devil I know
She's the devil I know

Now she's the kind a woman
Keep you comin' back for more
Got the kind of face
You swear you seen someplace before
Coulda' been your mamma
Coulda' been a mexican whore
She's the devil I know

Now she'd drag you straight to hell
I can tell and I think I'll just go
Yeah the devil sent her here
To deliver me body and soul
Yeah and every inch she drags me down
I'm closer to the glow
She's the devil I know
