The Silver Tongued Devil and I

"The Silver Tongued Devil and I" was written by Kris Kristofferson and is the opening song on the 1971 album of the same name. A version appears on the 1977 Chris LeDoux album "Sing Me a Song Mr. Rodeo Man". I took myself down to the Tally Ho Tavern To buy me a bottle of beer And I sat me down by a tender young maiden Whose eyes were as dark as her hair And as I was searching from bottle to bottle For something unfoolish to say That silver tongued devil just slipped from the shadows And smilingly stole her away I said, "Hey, little girl, don't you know, he's the devil? He's everything that I ain't Hiding intentions of evil Under the smile of a saint All he's good for is getting in trouble Shifting his share of the blame And some people swear he's my double And some even say we're the same" But the silver-tongued devil's got nothing to lose I'll only live 'til I die We take our own chances, and pay our own dues The silver tongued devil and I Like all the fair maidens who've laid down beside him She knew in her heart that he'd lied Nothing that I could have said could have saved her No matter how hard that she tried 'Cause she'll offer her charms to the darkness and danger Of something that she's never known And open her arms at the smile of a stranger Who'll love her and leave her alone And you know he's the devil He's everything that I ain't Hiding intentions of evil Under the smile of a saint All he's good for is getting in trouble And shifting his share of the blame And some people swear he's my double And some even say we're the same But the silver-tongued devil's got nothing to lose I'll only live 'til I die We take our own chances, and pay our own dues The silver-tongued devil and I
