Devil Made A Mess Caroline Herring No one will know the words you said, no one leave it to me to disappear, to move along nothing from the past will ever haunt me like you do oh sweet baby the devil made a mess out of you never say never thought I was wise when I loved you, dear some little boy needed a mama to hold him near wailing on the mourner's bench right behind the back row pew oh sweet baby the devil made a mess out of you what's that spell makes us want to ride into Hell this much is true he made a mess of me, too I'll never forget the good times we had though you crossed them out and went back to the girl you once sent away then you laughed about there's a meanness inside you that turns my insides black and blue oh sweet baby the devil made a mess out of you
