  • Late at night
    I'm sippin' as you pass me by
    Red or white?
    You pour another, say, "It's fine"

    I don't believe in you
    (I, I don't believe that)
    'Cause I know just how you do
    (I, I seen it right through)

    I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
    Had conversation, yeah, I think he's alright
    Seemed kinda funny, yeah, he kinda my type (kinda my type)
    Yeah, yeah, yeah
    I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
    One conversation, now he's spendin' the night
    I think I love him, though I know it ain't right
    Yeah, I met him last night

    You got me fucked up
    I won't let this happen again
    (Mm, yeah)
    This the last time
    You won't take advantage of my innocence (mm, yeah)

    I don't believe in you
    (I, I don't believe that)
    Disguised but I see right through
    (I, I seen it right through)

    I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
    Had conversation, yeah, I think he's alright
    Seemed kinda funny, yeah, he kinda my type (kinda my type)
    Yeah, yeah, yeah
    I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
    One conversation, now he's spendin' the night
    I think I love him, though I know it ain't right
    Though I know it ain't right

    Yeah, I met him last night

    How can I ever believe him?
    The one that could be so deceiving (yeah)
    Boy, you were my only vice
    I never feel this way
    Won't be no hostage, I'm leavin' (yeah)
    Boy, you just gave me a reason
    No, I never thought I'd be the one
    No, I never thought I'd be the one to fall
    Watch me bounce before I give you my all
    So I promise, tonight is the last call

    I don't believe in you
    (I, I don't believe that)
    Disguised but I see right through
    (I, I seen it right through)
    (I, I seen it right through)

    I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
    Had conversation, yeah, I think he's alright
    Seemed kinda funny, yeah, he kinda my type
    Yeah, yeah, yeah
    I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
    One conversation, now he's spendin' the night
    I think I love him, though I know it ain't right
    (Ain't right, ain't right, ain't right, no)

    (Mm-mm-mm) (oh, whoa)
    (Mm-mm-mm)
    (Mm-mm-mm)
