Devil Woman (Britten) Lyrics by All About Eve

Devil Woman (Britten)

I've had nothing but bad luck
Since the day I saw the cat at my door
So I came here to you sweet lady
Answering your mystical call
Crystal ball on the table
Showing the future the past
Same cat with them evil eyes
And I know it was a spell she'd cast

She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman she's gonna get you
She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
She's gonna get you from behind

Give me the ring on your finger
Let me see the lines of your hand
I can see me a tall dark stranger
Giving you what you hadn't planned
I drank the potion she offered me
I found myself on the floor
Then I locked in those big green eyes
And I wondered what I came there for

She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman she's gonna get you
She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
She's gonna get you from behind

Stay awake look out
If you're out on a moonlit night
Be careful of the neighborhood strays
Of a lady with long black hair
Tryin' to win you with her feminine ways
Crystal ball on the table showing the future the past
Same cat with them evil eyes you'd better get out oh there fast

She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman she's gonna get you
She's just a devil woman with evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman she's gonna get you ...
