Key: A
Introduction:
A D
Way down in Louisiana
A E
Amongst the tall grown sugar canes
A D
Lived a simple man and a dominiker hen
E A
And a rose of a different name.
A D
Well, the first time I felt lightning
A E
I was standing in the drizzling rain
A D
With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin
E A
And a rose of a different name.
A D
Well, the devil made me do it the first time
A E
The second time I done it on my own
A D
Lord, put a handle on a simple headed man
E A
And help me leave that black rose alone.

A D
When the devil made that woman
A E
Lord, he threw the pattern away
A D
She was built for speed with the tools you need
E A
To make a new fool every day
.
A D
Way down deep and dirty
A E
On the darker side of shame
A D
I caught a cane cuttin' man with a bottle of gin
E
With a rose of a different name.
A D
The devil made me do it the first time
A E
The second time I done it on my own
A D
Lord, put a handle on a simple headed man
E A
And help me leave that black rose alone.
