I took myself down to the tally ho tavern

To buy me a bottle of beer

And I sat me down by a tender young maiden

Whose eyes were as soft as her hair

And as I was searching from bottle to bottle

For something unfoolish to say

That silver tongued devil just slipped from the shadows

And smilingly stole her away

I said hey little girl don't you know he's the devil

He's everything that I ain't

Hiding intentions of evil

Under the smile of a saint

All he's good for is gettin' in trouble

And shifting his share of the blame

And some people swear he's my double

And some even say we're the same

But the silver-tongued devil's got nothing to lose

And I'll only live 'till I die

We take our own chances and pay our own dues

The silver tongued devil and I

Like all the fair maidens who've laid down beside him

She knew in her heart that he'd lied

Nothing that I could have said could have saved her

No matter how hard that she tried

'Cause she'll offer her soul to the darkness and danger

Of something that she's never known

And open her arms at the smile of a stranger

Who'll love her and leave her alone

And she know's he's the devil

He's everything that I ain't

Hiding intentions of evil intentions

Under the smile of a saint

All he's good for is gettin' in trouble

And shifting his share of the blame

And some people swear he's my double

And some even say we're the same

But the silver-tongued devil's got nothing to lose

And I'll only live 'till I die

We take our own chances and pay our own dues

The silver tongued devil and I
