I told Mary about us.
I told her about our great sin.
Mary cried and forgave me,
And Mary took me back again.
Said if I wanted my freedom,
I could be free evermore.
But I don't wanna be,
And I don't wanna see
Mary cry anymore.

Oh, devil woman,
Devil woman let go of me.
Devil woman let me be.
And leave me alone.
I wanna go home.

Mary is waitin' and weepin',
Down in her shack by the sea.
Even after I've hurt her,
Mary's still in love with me.
Devil woman it's over,
Trapped no more by your charms
Yes I don't wanna stay,
I wanna 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 wanna go home.

Devil woman you're evil,
Like the dark coral reef.
Like the winds that bring high tide,
You bring sorrow and grief.
Made me ashamed to face Mary,

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 wanna go home.

Runnin' alone by the seashore,
Runnin' 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 let me be.
And leave me alone.
I'm goin' back home.
