Devil Got My Woman is the fourth studio album by American blues singer Skip James, released in 1968. It was his last record before his death in 1969. The title track is featured in the 2001 film Ghost World. The original 78 RPM record from 1931 with the original version of the song on is a very desirable record among collectors with only three known copies to exist and only one out of the three in playable condition

AllMusic critic Scott Yanow wrote: "One can easily hear the influence that Skip James' music had on the then flourishing folk music movement, and he still sang his country blues with great intensity."[2]
