Tell me what you all think...

Title: Mack's Blues

Well the devil gotta be a woman
Cuz a woman been temptin' me
Grab me by the hand and take me 'neath that apple tree
Said grab an apple. Why? Cuz they're mighty tasty

Ramblin' down the highway
With my old guitar and harp
Cold weather killin' my body but that woman killin' my heart
With a lovin' .44 she keeps on her side

Jumped on a freight train
The KC number 2
Ole' devil still tryin' to make me feel blue
I said, "get thee on back behind me, Satan."

Hopped aboard an airplane
Flew to Vietnam
Devil woman asked me if I'd be her man
I said, "sure," she said, "well nevermind."

Finally got the strength
And told the devil woman to go away
A few seconds later I said oh baby please stay
I was strong but that devil's always stronger
