Never Let The Devil Get The Upper Hand Of You - The Carter Family (卡特家族)[00:00:00]

My tender parents brought me up [00:00:04]

Provided for me well[00:00:09]

Was in the city of Lanson town[00:00:13]

They placed me in a mill[00:00:17]

It was there I spied a pretty fair miss[00:00:23]

On whom I cast my eye[00:00:27]

I asked her if she'd marry me[00:00:31]

And she believed a lie[00:00:36]

Three weeks ago last Saturday night [00:00:49]

Of course it was the day[00:00:54]

The devil put it in my mind to take her life away[00:00:58]

I went into her sister's house[00:01:07]

At eight o'clock one night[00:01:12]

But little did the critter think on her[00:01:16]

I had my spite[00:01:21]

I asked her[00:01:33]

If she'd take a walk with me a little way[00:01:35]

That she and I might have a talk[00:01:42]

About our wedding day[00:01:46]

We walked along until we came to[00:01:51]

My little desert place[00:01:56]

I grabbed this stick off of the fence[00:02:00]

And struck her in the face[00:02:04]

I run my fingers[00:02:17]

Through her coal-black hair to cover up my sins[00:02:19]

I drug her to the riverside[00:02:25]

And there I plunged her in[00:02:30]

I started back unto my mill I met my servant John[00:02:35]

He asked me why I was so pale[00:02:43]

And it so very warm[00:02:47]

Come all young men and warning take [00:03:01]

Unto your lovers be true[00:03:05]

And never let the Devil get the upper hand of you[00:03:09]
