"Devil Woman" Lyrics

I told Mary about us, I told her about a great sin
Mary cried and forgave me then Mary took me back again
Said if I wanted my freedom I could be free ever more
But I don't want to be and I don't want to see Mary cry anymore.

Oh, Devil woman
Devil woman let go of me
Devil woman let me be
Leave me alone, I want to go home.

Mary is waiting and weeping down in our shack by the sea
Even after I hurt her Mary's still in love with me
Devil woman it's over, trapped no more by your charm
'Cause I don't want to stay, I want to get away, woman let go of my arm.

Oh, Devil woman
Devil woman let go of me
Devil woman let me be
And leave me alone, I want to go home.

Devil woman your evil like the dark coral reef
Like the winds that bring high tides you bring sorrow and grief
You made me ashamed to face Mary, Mary had the strength to tell
Skies are not so black, Mary took me back, Mary has broken your spell.

Oh, Devil woman
Devil woman let go of me
Devil woman let me be
And leave me alone I want to go home.

Running along by the seashore, running as fast as I can
Even the seagulls are happy, glad I'm coming home again
Never again will I ever 'cause another tear to fall
Down the beach I see what belongs to me, the one I want most of all.

Oh, Devil Woman, Devil woman don't follow me,
Devil woman let me be, and leave me alone
I'm going back home...
