Rolling down a two lane street
when all the sudden in the passenger seat
there was a well dressed man
who filled my heart with fear
That truck was moving fast
I thought this ride gonna be my last
when he grabbed by hand and dropped me into second gear
Devil let go
Devil let go
Cause a Jim Beam bottle
and a Ford truck throttle
ain't a good combination
I'd know
Stop this truck while I still can
run away for 'em too drunk to stand
I ain't a wayward man
so devil let go of my hand
Go for Mexico on my boat
he appeared in a long black coat
and he grabbed my hand and shoved that throttle hard
he said "boy take another drink
sonny ain't got time to think
cause we're in a race
being chased by the national guard"
Devil let go
Devil let go
Cause a Jim Beam bottle
and an outboard throttle
ain't a good combination
I'd know
stop this boat jump out to swim
but don't forget my bottle of Jim
I'm a drowning man
so devil let go of my hand
let go devil
The police come they knock on my door
and I said "he ain't here no more"
and I hit that back yard throwing a can of beer
then the devil tossed me a key
said "boy you better come with me"
and he grabbed my hand and took me to my old John Deere
Devil let go
Devil let go
cause a Jim Beam bottle
and a John Deere throttle
ain't a good combination
I'd know
I can't shake cops off off my ass
when I'm leaving a trail of half inch grass
I'm a wanted man
so devil let go of my hand
I'm a wanted man so
devil let go
