The Silver Tongued Devil And I (Remaster) - Kris Kristofferson (克里斯·克里斯托佛森)[00:00:00]
Written by:Kris Kristofferson[00:00:01]
I took myself down to the tally ho tavern[00:00:04]
To buy me a bottle of beer[00:00:09]
I sat me down by a tender young maiden[00:00:14]
Who's eyes were ourself dark as her hair[00:00:18]
And as I was searching from bottle to bottle[00:00:23]
For something unfoolish to say[00:00:27]
That silver tongued devil[00:00:32]
Just slipped from the shadows[00:00:34]
And smilingly stole her away[00:00:37]
I said hey little girl[00:00:40]
Don't you know he's the devil[00:00:43]
He's everything that I ain't[00:00:47]
Hiding intentions of evil[00:00:51]
Under the smile of a saint[00:00:56]
All he's good for is getting in trouble[00:01:00]
And shiftin' his share of the blame[00:01:05]
And some people swear he's my double[00:01:10]
And some even say we're the same[00:01:15]
But the silver tongued devil's[00:01:19]
Got nothing to lose[00:01:22]
I'll only live 'til I die[00:01:25]
We take our own chances[00:01:29]
And pay our own dues[00:01:31]
The silver tongued devil and I[00:01:35]
Like all the fair maidens[00:01:42]
Who've laid down beside him[00:01:45]
She knew in her heart that he'd lied[00:01:47]
And nothin' that I could have said[00:01:52]
Could've saved her[00:01:55]
No matter how hard that she tried[00:01:57]
'Cos she'll offer her souls[00:02:01]
To the darkness and danger[00:02:04]
Of somethin' that she's never known[00:02:06]
And open her arms at the smile of a stranger[00:02:11]
Who'll love her and leave her alone[00:02:16]
And you know he's the devil[00:02:22]
He's everything that I ain't[00:02:26]
Hiding intentions of evil[00:02:31]
Intention[00:02:34]
Under the smile of a saint[00:02:36]
All he's good for is getting in trouble[00:02:40]
And shiftin' his share of the blame[00:02:45]
And some people swear he's my double[00:02:50]
And some even say we're the same[00:02:55]
But the silver tongued devil's[00:02:59]
Got nothing to lose[00:03:02]
I'll only live 'til I die[00:03:04]
We take our own chances[00:03:09]
And pay our own dues[00:03:12]
The silver tongued devil and I[00:03:20]
