Eve
Side Walk Slam Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A night like this, three weeks ago
She's lookin good, asked her to the show
She messed my head, led me astray
Left me in the gutter for dead that day

Seems so good like fruit on a tree
Listened to her words, said she set me free
Her words were wrong, stabbed me in the back
Left me standing naked in the garden all alone

A lesson learned, don't turn away from God
Live by the Word, and always stay strong




Yeh, she was fine and she was sweet
But she was the devil and swept me off my feet

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Side Walk Slam's song "Eve" describe a man recalling a recent encounter with a woman at a show he attended three weeks ago. He describes her as looking good and how he asked her to the show. However, as the night went on, she messed with his head and led him astray, ultimately leaving him in a hard situation. It seems like she was charming with her words- It seems so good like fruit on the tree, and had initially pulled him closer with her apparent wisdom.


However, her true intentions are revealed as her words end up doing more harm than good. He realizes that he was duped and that turning away from God's teachings is not the right way of life to live. He advises us to live by the Word and always stay strong. Therefore, even though she seemed fine and sweet, she was the devil who managed to sweep him off his feet.


The lyrics clearly depict the harmful effects of taking a wrong path and making wrong choices. The man in the song is in admiration of this charming woman but then ends up getting hurt by her. He learns a valuable lesson that he shares with the listeners, to always be vigilant in life's choices and to stay true to one's beliefs.
