Goin' to Beat the Devil (To See My Angel Tonight) Lyrics


Flyin' down a flat track, bottle in a brown sack
Pistons pumpin' in a poor boy's Cadillac
Cross the Mississippi, crazy on the pale moonlightI'm goin' to beat the devil
To see my angel tonight, yeahGotta go can't stop smokin' like a chimney top
Heart's on fire got me heated up real hot
Burnin' down the bayou like a lit stick of dynamiteSay I'm goin' to beat the devil
To see my angel tonightThere's a little piece of Heaven
Down a snaky Louisiana road
Sweeter than a taste of homemade wine
And hotter than TabascoTearin' up the retreads right foot full of lead
Ain't slowin' down for alligators, copperheads
Like a runaway train barrelin' down the lineI'm goin' to beat the devil
To see my angel tonightGet out of my wayThere's a little piece of Heaven
Down a snaky Louisiana road
Sweeter than a taste of homemade wine
And hotter than TabascoSkeeter filled swampland, shaky bridge quicksand
Runnin' over potholes fast as I can
One left headlight leadin' me to paradiseI'm goin' to beat the devil

To see my angel tonightSay, I'm goin' to beat the devil
To see my angel tonightYeah, I'm goin' to beat the devil
To see my angel tonightOh, yeah, almost there

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Steve Azar was born and raised in Greenville, Mississippi at the entrance to the Mississippi Delta. His mother was raised above the family grocery store located on Highway 61 in Clarksdale, MS near the infamous “Crossroads”. “The Crossroads” is the intersection of Route 61 and Route 49, or the 61/49 split as they call it there, in Clarksdale, Mississippi, made famous in the Robert Johnson song, “Cross Road Blues”. This is where Delta Blues legend Robert Johnson supposedly sold his soul to the Devil in exchange for mastery of the blues, or so the story goes.
