lyrics

Devil does what devil does
There’s no way ‘round only through

When I’m hot with hurting heart
I’m burning all through and through
Honey wants to read my head
My head is hot with the blues

Devil does
what devil does

Ever loving, burning one
The light was overdo

Devil wants to kiss the sun
And burn it all through and through
Honey has a dizzy spell
As dizzinesses do

Great album! A crossover jazz-r'nb-african trip from continent to continent. London does it again. Nyubian Twist with more jazz overtones. John Woodward
