Lyrics The Silver Tongued Devil and I

I took myself down to the Tally Ho Tavern to buy me a bottle of beer

I sat me down by a tender young maiden

Whose eyes were as dark as her hair

And as I was searching from bottle to bottle for something unfoolish to say

That silver tongued devil just slipped from the shadows and smilingly stole her away

I said hey, little girl don't you know he's the devil he's everything that I ain't

Hidin' intentions of evil under the smile of a saint

All he's good for is gettin' in trouble shiftin' his share of the blame

And some people swear he's my double

And some even say we're the same

But the silver tongued devil's got nothin' to lose

I'll only live 'til I die

We take our own chances and pay our own dues the silver tongued devil and I

Like all the fair maidens who've laid down beside him

She knew in her heart that he'd lied

Nothin' that I could have said could have saved her

No matter how hard that she tried

'Cos she'll offer her charms to the darkness and danger

Of somethin' that she's never known

And open her arms at the smile of a stranger

Who'll love her and leave her alone

And you know he's the devil he's everything that I ain't

Hidin' intentions of evil under the smile of a saint

All he's good for is getting' in trouble

And shiftin' his share of the blame

And some people swear he's my double

And some even say we're the same

But the silver tongued devil's got nothin' to lose

I'll only live 'til I die

We take our own chances and pay our own dues ah ha

The silver tongued devil and I
