She was built for speed with the tools you need
With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin
And help me leave that black rose alone
And a rose of a different name
You caught a cane cuttin' man with a bottle of gin
The devil made me do it the first time
The first time I fell lightly
I was standing in the drizzlin' rain
Lord, put a handle on a simple handed man
The second time, I done it on my own
And a rose of a different name
With a rose of a different name
When the devil made that woman
Lived a simple man and a domineerin' hen
The devil made me do it the first time
Way down, deep and dirty
Lord, she threw the pattern away
To make a new fool every day
On the darker side of shame
