Prompt / Lyrics
(Acoustic guitar riff intro) (Verse) I went down to the crossroads To cut myself a deal This ol life is getting dull And I’m itching for a thrill Saw a man standing there With a black brim hat and cane Said just sign on that dotted line And you’ll have all the fame I tip my hat with a crooked smile And signed my soul away (Chorus) Now I’m drinking and smoking cheating like a fool hanging with the wrong crowd Playing by no one’s rules I’m afraid I’ll live forever, cause only the good die young Heaven don’t want me and the devil just begun (Verse) They said that wild life is hell of a time it’ll put you in the grave Jokes on them I can’t lie Been dead ever since that day This guitar on my lap Been saving people when I play Bending these strings all night and day For the man with the cane (Chorus) Now I’m drinking and smoking cheating like a fool hanging with the wrong crowd Playing by no one’s rules I’m afraid I’ll live forever, cause only the good die young Heaven don’t want me and the devil just begun (Solo let’s the notes breath) (Pre chorus no music, just hand clapping) I go back to the crossroads that ol’ Man appeared Cracked open a cold beer Tipped his hat We raised a toast to trouble And hit the road with the devils grin (Guitar kicks back in) (Chorus) Now I’m drinking and smoking cheating like a fool hanging with the wrong crowd Playing by no one’s rules I’m afraid I’ll live forever, cause only the good die young Heaven don’t want me and the devil just begun
