Well, the light's turnin' gray, nearly eve'ry day

Come a walkin' into town and try to find the way

Well, I've only got a nickel, got to score myself a dime

And try to make it 'til tomorrow, buy a little more time



Evil woman, evil woman

Evil woman



Well, my damsel she's a woman with coal black hair

Don't you look her in her eye when she starts to stare

'Cause her beauty drive you crazy

And her potions steal your soul

No matter how you beg her she don't ever let you go

Well, you can cry, you can plead

It won't help you none

She'll keep you in the shadows, never see the sun

Try to run, try to hide

Find a place to stay

No matter where you go you can't get away



Evil woman, evil woman

Evil woman, oh



For evil woman set my life free

I can't go on livin' this way, no

Evil woman set my life free

Pullin' me down, down

I can't go on this way

Down, down my head will go against the floor again

Down, down my head will go against the floor again

Down, down I can't go on this way

Down, down my head will go again

Down, down I can't go on this way

Down, down my head will go again

Down, down I can't go on this way

Down, down my head will go again

Down, down I can't go on this way

Down, down, down



Well, the light's turnin' gray

Nearly ev'ry day

Come a walkin' into town

Try to find my way

I said I only got a nickel

Got to score myself a dime

Try to make it 'til tomorrow

Buy a little more time

My damsel she's a woman with coal black hair

Don't you look her in her eye when she starts to stare

'Cause her beauty drive you crazy

And her potions steal your soul

No matter how you beg her she don't ever let you go





Evil woman, evil woman

Evil woman
