John Wesley Harding - The Devil In Me lyrics

I shot john f.kennedy in dallas in 63 They blamed it on oswald carelessly But it was the devil in me Put jesus on the cross, i put a gag on the boss I kissed him on the cheek so he couldn't speak But that was the devil in me It was the devil in me It's the devil in me that's unlevelling me Put it down to the devil in me I made you breakfast, put poisoned sheets on the bed I made you cry, couldda made you laugh instead But that was the devil in me So i k**ed you off, i tore your famous brown furcoat I laughed at your cough, ignored your suicide note But that was the devil in me..... I blew up the bus, i started world war iii Hijacked the plane with qadaffi, blew the hostages free That was the devil in me I'm sponsored by a company that i don't believe in I advertise their things for cash, that ain't deceiving No, that's just the devil in me It was the devil in me.... I gave you acid rain I polluted the sea I covered your thoughts up With graffiti You can call me by my real name Or you can call me humanity Because it all seems just like human behaviour It all seems like human behaviour to me Put it down to the devil in me It was the devil in me It was the devil in me Well it's the devil in me makes me do these things Devil in me that makes me sing Devil in me gave you a wedding ring Put it down to the devil in me
