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]
|
