The devil I know

His hands are like nicotine

The devil I know

Won't let me be

I can't tell him no

I just get so weak

And it's thunder, shaking I can't take it

And you can't help who you love

No, you can't help who you love

Is it better to take up another one?

It's the devil I know

I can't remember before this devil I know

He treats me like his dog tied to a paper rope

I could leave but I stay, oh I stay

And it's thunder, shaking I can't take it

And you can't help who you love

No, you can't help who you love

Is it better to take up another one?

It's the devil I know

And if you couldn't see, I'd take the burden

And if I wanted to leave, I wouldn't be certain

At times I don't think you care

And it's thunder, shaking, I can't take it

And you can't help who you love

No, you can't help who you love

No, you can't help who you love

No, you can't help who you love

Is it better to take up another one?

It's the devil I know

It's the devil I know

Or the devil I don't

Or the devil I don't

You're the devil
