This song seemed appropriate for Damnation Inc., even if it's not my usual taste...damn catchy though.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]

Well Reverend, reverend please come quick
'Cause I've got something to admit
I met a man out in the sticks
A good old mess
He drove a series 10 Cadillac and wore a cigar on his lip

[Chorus]
Don't you know the devil wears a suit and tie
Saw him driving down the 61' in early July
White as a cotton field and sharp as a knife
I heard him howling as he passed me by

[Verse 2]
And he said I know you, I know you young man
I know you by the state of your hands
You're a six-string picker Just as I am Let me learn you something
I know a few turns to make all the girls dance
[Chorus]
Don't you know the devil wears a suit and tie
Saw him driving down the 61' in early July
White as a cotton field and sharp as a knife
I heard him howling as he passed me by

[Bridge]
Oh Foolish, foolish was I
Damn my foolish eyes
'Cause that man's lessons
Had a price, oh sweet price
My sweet soul, everlasting
A very own eternal light

[Chorus]
Don't you know that the devil wears a suit and tie
Saw him driving down the 61' in early July
White as a cotton field and sharp as a knife
I heard him howling as he passed me by
Well, the devil wears a suit and tie
I saw him driving down the 61' in early July
White as a cotton field and sharp as a knife
I heard him howling as he passed me by
