Honey Babe

honey Babe i wanted to sing
honey Babe i wanted to sing
but the devil he done made
paws of my fingers
wrapped my throat around a ring
'round a ring
honey Babe i thought the funniest thing
honey Babe at least it's funny to me
how those keys they go under doormats, and those ballots they go into ballot boxes and sometimes under the callous
slips the guitar string
you're not laughing
honey Babe is that the devil you see?
honey Babe is that the devil you see?
cuz you've given all your attention to shadows
now there's none for me
but that's casting
and there go that same devil
whistling
