I recognise no method of living that I know I see only the basic materials I may use If you ask me, I may tell you It's been this way for years I play my red guitar It's the devil in the flesh It's the iron in my soul I understand you're facing problems inside you A certain difficulty of being that I know too You may ask me why do I fail Just when I'm needed I play my red guitar It's the devil in the flesh It's the iron in my soul If you ask me, I may tell you It's been this way for years
