BILLIE HOLIDAY - That Ole Devil Called Love



It"s that ole devil called love game
Gets behind me and keeps giving me that shock again
Put a ring in my eyes
Tears in my dreams
And rocks in my heart

It"s that sly ole-sun-of-a-gun again
He keeps telling me that I"m the lucky one again
But I still have that ring
Still have those tears
And those rocks in my heart

Suppose I didn"t stay and ran away
Wouldn"t play
That devil-what a potion he would brew
He"d follow me around
Build me up, tear me down
Till I"d be so bewildered
I wouldn"t know what to do

Might as well give up the fight again
I know darn well he"ll convince me
That he"s right again
When he sings that siren song
I just gotta tag along
With that ole devil called love

He"d follow around
Build me up, tear me down
Till I"d be so bewildered
I wouldn"t know what to do
