Devil on the Loose - Black River Delta

there’s a devil on the loose she said

surely heaven won’t forgive me

the man I loved have past away she said

and it’s all because of me

I can hear him through the forest

it’s been our home for fifty years

the man I love have past away she said

and it’s all because of me

the last words he spoke was wisdom

and while I drove for ninety miles

then he went down too the basement

and it was where he took his life

there’s a devil on the loose she said

surely heaven won’t forgive me

the man I loved have past away she said

and it’s all because of me

if I’ll give my heart tomorrow

will the heavens let me in

though he struggled hard with his cancer oh

I live my life to honor him

there’s a devil on the loose she said

surely heaven won’t forgive me

the man I loved have past away she said

and it’s all because of me
