Album: The Story of My Life: Best of Marty

Devil Woman

I told Mary about it
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
And 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 let go of me
DEVIL WOMAN don't follow me
And leave me alone
I want to go home
