A Day With the Devil - Matt Mason

I left here this mornin', my feet hard on the ground

Swore I wasn’t comin' back, we’d fought our final round

Then a stranger, offered me a ride

So I took him up and climbed on inside

He said I’ve got some things to do, I hope that you don’t mind

I figured what’s the difference?

I had lots of time

When I seen his eyes I sank in disbelief

I was ridin' with the devil, and I watched him do his deeds

He told that lonely man to keep drinkin'

Simple child to just quit thinkin'

And begged the wife to cheat

And he cursed the farmers land

Told that sick old soul to just give up

Teenage boy to take that puff

And whispered to me let go of her hand

He said I can’t keep you here, no not against your will

But go ahead and leave that girl and see how good it feels

Boy you know, this worlds a big ol' place

And loves not really real anyway

Life don’t last forever, so you oughta roll the dice

You know I’d never tell a lie, just take my advice

But I’d seen enough and I told him we were through

I said go to hell, there’s some things I need to do

I told that lonely man to quit drinkin'

Simple child to just keep thinkin'

And begged the wife to pray, God bless the farmer’s land

Told that sick old soul to not give in

The teenage boy to run from sin

And came back home to take you by the hand

I know I can be a better man
