Lyrics
Met the Devil down by the well, He said, “Boy, you play pain real well.” I said, “I don’t play, I live that tune.” He smiled wide beneath the moon.
He offered me gold, I said, “I’ve seen enough.” He laughed and said, “Then I’ll pay in blood.”
The Devil don’t ride for free, He always leaves his mark on me. You can run, you can bend your knee — But the Devil don’t ride for free.
He rode beside me, mile by mile, Talkin’ sin with a preacher’s smile. Said, “You’ve got fire, boy, you’ve got taste — But faith don’t matter in my place.”
I looked him down, said, “Do your worst.” He grinned — “You’ve been mine since birth.”
The Devil don’t ride for free, He trades your truth for company. He’ll buy your soul in whiskey dreams — The Devil don’t ride for free.
He don’t chase — he waits instead, Beside your fire, inside your head. You’ll know his price before you see — The Devil don’t ride for free.
He’s in the wind, the dust, the song, He rides with me when nights get long.
The Devil don’t ride for free, He’s paid in pain and memory. You can pray, you can bleed, you can plea — The Devil don’t ride for free.
