Lyrics of The Devil Wears a Suit and Tie by Colter Wall

verse

Well
Reverend Reverend please come quick
'Cause I got something to admit
I met a man out in the sticks
A good old miss
He drove a series 10 cadillac
And wore cigar on his lip
Don't you know the Devil wears a suit and tie
I saw him driving down the sixty one in early July
White as a cotton field
And sharp as a knife
I heard him howlin' as he passed me by
And he said
I know you I know you, young man
I know you by the state of your hands
You're a six string picker
Just as I... I am
Let me learn ya some I know a few turns to make all the girls dance
Don't you know the Devil wears a suit and tie
I saw him driving down the sixty one in early July
White as a cotton field
And sharp as a knife
I heard him howlin' as he passed me by

verse

Foolish foolish was I

verse

Damn my foolish eyes
Cause that man's lessons had a price
Oh sweet price

verse

My sweet soul
Everlasting
My very own
Eternal light

chorus

Don't you know the Devil wears a suit and tie
I saw him driving down the sixty one in early July
White as a cotton field
And sharp as a knife
I heard him howlin' as he passed me by
Well the Devil wears a suit and tie
I saw him driving down the sixty one in early July
White as a cotton field
And sharp as a knife
I heard him howlin'
As he passed me
