They say I was baptized in dirty water
By the hands of the devil himself
Between the banks of a Whiskey River
Beside the Highway to Hell
I got scars on my heart and knuckles
I got debts that I ain't paid
Yeah, but I got blessings sent down from heaven
Baby, you're my saving grace
Girl, you got an outlaw
Ready to lay down all my guns
A dirty old hound dog
Learning new tricks like cuddling up
You've got a hellcat purring like a kitten
You've got a sinner down on his knees
It had to be hell on an angel
Loving the devil outta me
So tell me how did you get under
This leather skin I wear?
Beneath the callouses and the tattoos
Around the walls I've built down there
To this heart I've locked and guarded
All alone, I was free to fly
Yeah, but it takes an angel to fly with a free bird
Baby, we've got the sky
Girl, you got an outlaw
Ready to lay down all my guns
A dirty old hound dog
Learning new tricks like cuddling up
You've got a hellcat purring like a kitten
You've got a sinner down on his knees
And it'd had to be hell on an angel
Loving the devil outta me, yeah
On an angel
Hell on an angel, on an angel
Come on, doll
Girl, you got an outlaw
Ready to lay down all my guns
A dirty old hound dog
Learning new tricks like cuddling up
You've got a hellcat purring like a kitten
Girl, you've got a sinner down on his knees
It had to be hell on an angel
Loving the devil outta me
It's hell on an angel
