about

This is built on a guitar riff from one of the great bluesmen, Mr. Robert Lockwood Jr. It's a song about a guy not quite sure of what he's getting into with a woman - "If she talk about marryin', say she want to be my wife, got to weigh the cost of happiness, 'gainst the value of my life, she might be an angel, or the devil in disguise..."

lyrics

Stairway to heaven, a pathway to hell
Both go through my baby, that is all that I can tell
Now, she may be an angel, might be the devil in disguise
Can’t tell by what she says, you just better watch her eyes

Keep a .38 in her purse, a .44 by the bed
Believe I’ll live much longer, the fewer words that’s said
‘Cause she may be an angel, or the devil in disguise
Don’t matter what she say, you just better watch her eyes

When she want to kiss me, and tell me I’m her man
Before I get too close, I check to see what’s in her hand
You know, she may be an angel, or the devil in disguise
Can’t tell by what she say, man you better watch her eyes

Sometimes she mean and evil, sometimes she’s sweet and kind
Best to keep your distance, ‘til you know what’s on her mind
She may be an angel, or the devil in disguise
Don’t listen to the words, you just always watch her eyes

If she ever talk ‘bout marryin’, say she, wanna’ be my wife
Got to weigh the cost of happiness, ‘gainst the value of my life
‘Cause she might be an angel, might be the devil in disguise
Don’t listen to her words, you just always watch her eyes

Kevin Greenwood Woodside, California

I began playing harmonica at 16 and was mentored by James Cotton, Junior Wells, and Louis Myers; getting to play with Magic Sam, Luther Tucker, Hound Dog Taylor and many others; and a personal friend of B.B. King from age 17. After a 35 year “blues retirement”, I'm back playing, here with a band of friends. Musically, this is my “debut at 72”. In my free time I'm a writer and substitute educator. ... more
