    How do you make peace with the devil
    When he's lyin' in you bed
    How do you moke peace with the devil
    When he's gotten inside of your head

    Promises you undying love
    or at least for a while
    Promises you all the world
    but he cant give you a smile

    What about the children
    they say he's a liar and mean
    Just hold'em and love'em
    Knowin its truth that they see

    Oh you cant make peace with the devil
    You cant get him out of your head
    You cant make peace with the devil
    Pray for my soul when i'm dead

    Makin love like a fire storm
    It's burnin' you inside
    Look for loves healin waters
    but it's not in his eyes

    You can't leave or outrun him
    Aint no way to get free
    You might as well accept it
    His heart will never know peace

    I like it but it's just another paean to goofery. The old saw is true: once you get in the goof in you you can't get it out.

    of course i wrote it.....i would never ever plagerize, thats just mean and wrong.... i cant help the way things come out ryming all the time it just comes out of my head like that. i could actually hear banjo's and washtub bass in my head when it came out... funny hunh, its not my regular style but what the heck, the "folksy-ness" of it makes the subject easier to deal with......by the way beekeeper i like your stuff too!
