Billie Holiday
That Ole Devil Called Love
[Verse 1]
It's that ole devil called love again
Gets behind me and keeps giving me that shove again
Putting rain in my eyes
Tears in my dreams
And rocks in my heart
[Verse 2]
It's that sly ole son of a gun again
He keeps telling me that I'm the lucky one again
But I still have that rain
Still have those tears
And those rocks in my heart
[Bridge]
Suppose I didn't stay
Ran away, wouldn't play
That devil, what a potion he would brew
He'd follow me around
Build me up, tear me down
'Til I'd be so bewildered
I wouldn't know what to do
[Verse 3]
Might as well give up the fight again
I know darn well he'll convince me that he's right again
When he sings that siren song
I just gotta tag along
With that ole devil called love
[Bridge]
He'd follow me around
Build me up, tear me down
'Til I'd be so bewildered
I wouldn't know what to do
[Verse 3]
Might as well give up the fight again
I know darn well he'll convince me that he's right again
When he sings that siren song
I just gotta tag along
With that ole devil called love
[Outro]
With that ole devil called love
