DEVIL WOMAN
(Robbins) 
Marty Robbins - 1962


I told Mary about us, told her about our great sin 
Mary just cried and forgave me, Mary took me back again 
She 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. 

CHORUS: 
Devil woman, devil woman, let go of me 
Devil woman, let me be 
Just leave me alone, 
I want to go home. 

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

(CHORUS) 

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 so ashamed to face Mary, barely had the strength to tell 
Skies are not so black, Mary took me back, Mary has broken your spell. 

(CHORUS)
