Текст песни Devil To Pay

(Merle Travis - Leon Rusk)

Go on girl take your chances
See how long you can go on from man to man
I can read the lines between your stolen glances
And I know it's time to fold this loosin' hand.

'Cause you're drawn to the flame
By the thrill and the shame
Of the cheatin' game they taught you how to play
That's the price of the high life you're livin'
And you still got the devil to pay.

Join your friends while you got 'em
'Cause you know you're gettin' older every day
You can't wait to let them take you to the bottom
And I'm gettin' tired of standin' in your way.Kris Kristofferson - Devil To Pay - http://ru.motolyrics.com/kris-kristofferson/devil-to-pay-lyrics.html

But when you hit the ground
Don't come lookin' around
For the pieces of the love you threw away
That's just part of the high cost you're leavin'
And you still got the devil to pay.

Now you've been flyin' so high for so long
And you lie to yourself now most of all
Baby all that you needed from me
Was the freedom to fall.

When the bright lights are gone
You'll be standin' alone
Forsaken in the naked light of day
Then you'll know that it's all over but the dying
And you still got the devil to pay...
