Walter Egan - Beats The Devil lyrics

Well, “Damned if I will” said Adam to Eve For making a mess with a tree Forbidden fruit from some snake in the gra** Just ain't my cup of tea Then Eve turned to Adam and she said with a smile “I'm gonna make you believe” Well there will be tears in paradise And they'll be all about Eve Woo… Damned if you do and damned if you don't It's the original sin How come a boy keeps chasing a girl Until she catches him? Beats the devil out of me! Beats the devil out of me! “Oh light from yonder window breaks” Said Romeo to Juliet “This family feud ain't our mistake And I love you truly, yeah” Well two crazy kids back in old Italy They had to alter their plans So Romeo followed Juliet All the way to the promised lands Damned if you do and damned if you don't It's the original sin How come a boy keeps chasing a girl Until she catches him? Beats the devil out of me! Beats the devil out of me! Well, beats the devil out of me Well, beats the devil out of me Oh… So when it comes down to you and me We come from a long line of lovers Who've managed to make some history Right there between the covers And you can always be my queen And I am always a king Keep in mind that it's not our fault It's a chromosomal thing Damned if you do and damned if you don't Well, it's the original sin How come the boy keeps chasing that girl Until she catches him? Beats the devil out of me! Beats the devil out of me! Well beats the devil out of me Well beats the devil out of me
