Whisky In My Hand (Devil Woman At My Side)

I'm a-stumblin' down one night
To Ozzie's Grill an' Bar,
Where th' liquor's dirt cheap
An' they're playin' blues guitar.

An' as I'm nursin' my drink,
Glass o' neat whisky,
That Devil Woman sat down by me
An' she started gettin' frisky.

Yeah, I had a whisky in my hand
An' a Devil Woman at my side.
An', oh Lord, you know later
She gone take me for a ride.

She got a smile bright as day,
Laugh clear as a bell,
An' oh, she'd got them curves
That'd drive a holy man to Hell.

An' I'm a weak, weak man, y'all.
I just couldn't resist
Those diamond eyes and blood-red lips,
Those lips that drank my kiss.

Oh, I had a whisky in my hand
An' that Devil Woman at my side.
Lord, Lord, you know later
She gone take me for a ride.

We stumbled back outta Ozzie's
In a little love huddle,
An' we were gettin' hot an' heavy
'Round those neon puddles.

We ducked into an alleyway,
An' that's when I saw the flash.
When I woke up, that bitch was gone
'Cuz she lit out with my cash!

Yeah, I had a whisky in my hand
An' that Devil Woman at my side.
An' what'd I tell you, child'run?
She done took me for a ride!
