The Devil Borrowed My Boots Lyrics

This Saturday night I was staying put
Head buried in the latest book
[?]
I heard a knock
I thought “Who could that be?”
I'm just knitting these socks
Almost slipped on the fresh [swept?] floor
When I came to see who was knocking at my door

Who could it be?
To my surprise
The devil stood there before my eyes
Said “You wanna hit the town?”
I said “Go away”
Turned on my heel to my room to pray
As I left and faded out of sight
The devil borrowed my boots last night

Took off in my boots and went to town
Went and caused a scene
[?] people saw the boots
That wasn't me

No I can only go now [?]
Let's just say the devil wasn't good as gold
Shots of whiskey at the bar
Yelling at the band, that could never go far
Just when people thought that the devil had left
[?] outside lighting up a cigarette

Took off in my boots and went to town
Went and caused a scene
[?] people saw the boots
That wasn't me

And then the devil came back and found a corner alone
Started meddling with Johnny Jones
I guess the devil thought that was fun to do
‘Cause then the devil met [?]
But y'all think that was me
Y'all ain't right
The devil borrowed my boots last night


Y'all think that was me
All ain't right
Y'all think that was me
All ain't right
Y'all think that was me
All ain't right
The devil borrowed my boots last night
