Got off work at five o'clock and started home to you

Running to an old acquaintance and we had one or two

And when I woke up this morning didn't know where I was at

My one excuse to offer you the devil made me do that

I only meant to say hello to an old memory

But when I tried to say goodbye he took a hold of me

And when he let go this morning didn't know where I was at

My one excuse to offer you the devil made me do that

The devil made me taste the wine and helped the glass abide

And like the blind man leads the blind I drank till lid ran dry

And when I woke up this morning didn't know where I was at

My one excuse to offer you the devil made me do that

Oh when I got home this morning didn't know where you were at

My one excuse to offer you the devil made me do that
