Jezebel, Jezebel



If ever the devil was born without a pair of horns

It was you, Jezebel, it was you

If ever an angel fell, Jezebel, it was you

Jezebel, it was you



If ever a pair of eyes promised paradise

Deceiving me, grieving me, leavin' me blue

Jezebel, it was you



If ever the devil's plan was made to torment man

It was you, Jezebel, it was you



Could be better that I never know a lover such as you

Forsaking dreams and all for the siren call of your arms



Like a demon, love possessed me, you obsessed me constantly

What evil star is mine, that my fate's design should be Jezebel?



If ever a pair of eyes promised paradise

Deceiving me, grieving me, leavin' me blue

Jezebel, it was you



If ever the devil's plan was made to torment man

It was you, Jezebel, it was you, night and day, every way

Jezebel, Jezebel, Jezebel!!!!
