Friend of the Devil

Bob Weir, The String Cheese Incident, Jeff Chimenti, Grace Potter

English
I lit out from Reno
I was trailed by twenty hounds
Didn't get to sleep that night
Till the morning came around

chorus:
I set out running but I take my time
A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight
I ran into the Devil, babe
He loaned me twenty bills
I spent that night in Utah
In a cave up in the hills

I ran down to the levee
But the Devil caught me there
He took my twenty-dollar bill
And he vanished in the air

Got two reasons why I cry
away each lonely night
First one's named sweet Ann Marie
and she's my heart's delight
Second one is prison, baby
the sheriff's on my trail
And if he catches up with me
I'll spend my life in jail

Got a wife in Cheno, babe
And one in Cherokee
First one says she's got my child
But it don't look like me

You can borrow from the Devil
You can borrow from a friend
But the Devil will give you twenty
When your friend only got ten

Salí de Reno
Me persiguieron veinte perros
No pude dormir esa noche
Hasta que llegó la mañana

coro:
Salgo corriendo pero me tomo mi tiempo
Un amigo del diablo es amigo mío.
Si llego a casa antes del amanecer
Tal vez pueda dormir un poco esta noche
Me encontré con el diablo, nena
Me prestó veinte billetes
Pasé esa noche en Utah.
En una cueva en las colinas

Corrí hasta el dique
Pero el diablo me atrapó allí
Tomó mi billete de veinte dólares
Y desapareció en el aire

Tengo dos razones por las que lloro
lejos cada noche solitaria
La primera se llama dulce Ann Marie.
y ella es la delicia de mi corazón
El segundo es la prisión, nena.
el sheriff está tras mi rastro
Y si me alcanza
pasaré mi vida en la cárcel

Tengo esposa en Cheno, nena.
Y uno en Cherokee
La primera dice que tiene a mi hijo.
Pero no se parece a mí

Puedes pedirle prestado al diablo
Puedes pedir prestado a un amigo.
Pero el diablo te dará veinte
Cuando tu amigo solo obtuvo diez
