Lyrics:

I'd rather be the devil, than be that woman's man
I'd rather be the devil, than be that woman's man
'Cause no one but the devil knows my baby's mind

I'd rather be dead, six feet in my grave
I'd rather be dead and six feet in my grave
Than have a woman I love treat me like a slave

I laid down last night, tried to take my rest
I laid down last night, tried to take my rest
My heart commended to wandering, like the wild geese in the west

I'd rather be the devil, than to be that woman's man
I'd rather be the devil, than be that woman's man
'Cause no one but the devil knows my baby's mind
