the devil i know

Joan Armatrading

Makes the call
Say everything's gonna be all right
Don't worry Joanie
I'll be a little bit late tonight
But I worry
'Cos I know
That's just how I got you

Likes a woman
That he has to chase a lot
So I worry
You know
It breaks a poor girl's heart
I know how he works
I know all the signs
I inspired the lines

Men
No self control
Says I'm all he wants
But I watch him prowl
Yet
If I should stray
I'm a wicked child
And he'd make me pay
The devil I know

One of these days
But that's what I always say
The devil I know
And the games that he can play
I know how he works
I know all the lines

Men
No self control
Says I'm all he wants
But I watch him prowl
Yet
If I should stray
I'm a wicked child
And he'd make me pay

The devil I know
The devil I know

One of these days
That's what I always say
But it's the devil I know
The games that he can play
