The track "Don't Mess Around With The Devil In Yourself" is taken from the Album "Mark Gillespie - Unplugged". Great performance and interpretation. Listen & enjoy it.
Mark Gillespie Duo:
Mark Gillespie (Vocals, Acoustic Guitar, Loop-Station, Cajon, Hand Sonic, Keys)
Tom Drost (Flute, Vocals)
The original song is written by RICHARD H. JONES.
Here are lyrics: DON'T MESS AROUND
Too many people waiting in line
Hoping for food while the rich wine and dine
We've got to get it together
And do what the one God say
I'm not saying rich should be poor
All I am asking is open your door
And get it together
And do what the one God say
And he say
Don't mess around with the devil in yourself
Don't mess around with the devil in yourself
Don't mess around with the devil in yourself
Don't mess around with the devil in yourself
Love isn't easy, survival comes first
It's a hard thing to smile through the hunger and thirst
Still we've got to get it together
And do what the one God say
And he say
Don't mess around...etc.
In the heart of the jungle, 'cross the hot desert sands
Over mountains and snow plains, in every land
Please lend a hand and
Do what the one God say
And he say
Don't mess around...etc.
Tell it ! Brother...
