Down the Middle

I know the devil walks beside me
Whoa
I know the dead and gone will follow
Whoa, trouble set me free

Came out with a gun in his hand
Heart on his sleeve
Wide-eyed with a sinister smile
Glaring at me

Smoke rolls in a sip of the glass
Straight Hennessy
From a man with nothing to gain
Oh but hell to leave

And I said oh
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa

I know, the devil walks beside me
Whoa

I know, the dead and gone will follow
Oh, trouble set me free

Cold eye with a chilling sound
Flew through the air
Third eye at the devil's gaze

[?] with a wicked spell
Took to the ground
Reached out with a lover's touch
Oh, and sang aloud

And I said oh
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa

I'm gon' kill the man who [?]
Oh

I know the dead and gone will follow
Oh, trouble set me free

He laid down by the river
Under the shadow of a tree
Once a stone cold sinner
Now a will to be set free
He split right down the middle
Reach far up and [?]
Now set me free from this demon
And the man came walking out
