I told Mary about us, told her about our great sin |
|
Mary cried and forgave me and Mary took me back again |
|
Said if I wanted my freedom, I could be free evermore |
|
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 |
|
And leave me alone |
|
I want to go home |
|
Mary is waitin' and weepin' down in our shack by the sea |
|
Even after I've hurt her, Mary' still in love with me |
|
Devil woman, it's over, trapped no more by your charms |
|
'Cause I don't want to stay, I want to get away, women let go of my arms |
|
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, you're 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, barely 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 |
|
Runnin' along by the seashore, runnin' 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 |
