Friend of the Devil
Lyricist:John Dawson, Jerome J Garcia, Robert C Hunter
I lit out from Reno I was trailed by twenty hounds Didn't get to sleep that night 'Till the morning came around
Set out runnin' but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight I just might get some sleep tonight
Ran into the devil, babe He loaned me twenty bills Spent the night in Utah In a cave up in the hills
Set out runnin' but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight I just might get some sleep tonight
Got two reasons why I cry Away each lonely night The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie And she's my hearts delight
The second one is prison, babe The sheriff's on my trail And if he catches up with me I'll spend my life in jail

Set out runnin' but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight I just might get some sleep tonight
Got two reasons why I cry Away each lonely night The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie And she's my hearts delight
The second one is prison, babe The sheriff's on my trail And if he catches up with me I'll spend my life in jail
Got a wife in Chino, babe And one in Cherokee The first one says, she's got my child But it don't look like me
Set out runnin' but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight I just might get some sleep tonight
