Devil Woman
Starr Ringo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everytime I see you walkin' down the street,
I say, you're the kind of woman I just gotta meet.
You look so good and you look so fine
And one of these days I'm gonna make you mine.

Your eyes are green and your legs are long,
And if I'm gonna get you, well, I gotta be strong.
But you're like the devil with horns in your head,
The only way I'll get you is to get you in bed.

Devil woman, you're like a stranger to me.
Devil woman, this ain't the way it should be.

Everytime I see you in the neighborhood,
I say, you're the kind of woman that makes me feel good.
I wanna beat you up then I wanna be kind,
And one of these days I'm gonna make you mine.

Sexy sadie, you look like the devil to me.
Devil woman, that's not the way it should be.

Yeah!

Devil woman, you're like a stranger to me.
Devil woman, this ain't the way it should be.

Early in the mornin' when the sun is hot,
All I do is think about the things you got.
But you're like the devil with horns in your head,
The only way I'll get you is to get you in bed.

Devil woman, you're like an angel to me.
Devil woman, this ain't the way it should be.

Yeah.

Everytime I see you walkin' down the street,
I say, you're the kind of woman I just gotta meet.
But you're like the devil with horns in your head,
The only way I'll get you is to get you in bed.

But you're like the devil with horns in your head,
The only way I'll get you is to get you in bed.

You look like the devil with horns in your head,
The only way I'll get you is to get you in bed.





I said, you look like the devil.
