devil in a sleepin' bag

we were headed home in austin

caught pneumonia on the road

taking it home to connie and the kids

a wheel ran off and jumped a railroad

then ran through a grocery store

if you want to buy a bus i'm taking bids

and the devil shivered in his sleeping bag

he said traveling on the road is such a drag

if we can make it home by friday we can brag

and the devil shivered in his sleeping bag

well i just got back from new york city

kris and rita done it all

raw perfection there for all the world to see

lord i heard an angel singing

in the philharmonic hall

rita coolidge rita coolidge cleft for me

and the devil shivered. and the devil shivered in his sleeping bag
