I chased my baby to New Orleans
All the way down to Frenchmen street
But when I got there I found him cheating
So now he's six feet under ground
So when I saw her in his arms
It caused my heart so much harm
So I decided to return the favor
And so I shot him down
Now I'm wanted around these parts
They call me the Devil of Wounded hearts
So all you cheaters beware
I'm coming for you
I saw my baby in my dreams
He came around to haunt me
Haunt me
He asked me why did you shoot me down
Oh baby why
I said it's 'cause you messed around
So go ahead and tell me go ahead and yell
Go ahead and yell
That I am going straight to hell
Straight to Hell
I still believe that I did the right thing
So go ahead and send me down
And maybe one day I'll look back on this deed
And a wave of regret will wash over me
But I can't take that bullet
From between his eyes
And now I'm wanted around these parts
They call me the Devil of Wounded Hearts
So all you cheaters beware
I'm coming for you
So now they're looking for me
They will search the land and sea
But I will not be found
Until I join my baby in the ground
Oh yeah
