Meaning of "Snake Drive" by R.L. Burnside

The lyrics of "Snake Drive" by R.L. Burnside seem to allude to the idea that love can be a destructive force, much like the devil, but the singer remains unaffected by it. The repeated lines "Love be the devil but it won't get me" suggest a resilience and defiance against the negative aspects of love. The repetition of "Let my baby ride" could symbolize a desire for their loved one to experience freedom or possibly to escape from the impact of love. The overall message could be about standing strong against the challenges that come with love and staying true to oneself despite its potentially harmful nature.
