the devil`s in the blues(Arnold Melleby, 02.23.2025)

hey, hey, hey

are we going on yet another journey

are we going to ravish yet another nest

hell yeah

this is the way to live 

for a man who knows nothing 

nothing but the lonely road


I`ll saddle up my pack of deamons

they always seem to agree

as I light up my first

as I watch the darkness

leave at last

the morning`s on my way


the devil`s in the blues

of a lonely highwayman

follow his trail

and you may get lost

get lost

and you may find his trail


smoke the weed 

growing along the milemarkers

get high before you reach any mountain ahead

trust the long-haulers giving you the space

to get on by between the lanes

flashing their lights

when it`s safe to pull up in front


the journey is in the journey itself

reaching the goal, the destination

is not of the essence at all

as the journey itself is the goal

a honky tonk angel is on the way

make room for a rebel yell


the devil`s in the blues

of a lonely highwayman

follow his trail

and you may get lost

get lost

and you may find his trail


the devil`s in the blues

of a lonely highwayman

follow his trail

and you may get lost

get lost

and you may find his trail
