[Verse 1] She walks in grinnin' like trouble in a red silk dress Eyes say "baby, I need you" heart says "boy, don't take that bet" She smiles like Sunday morning but she cuts like Saturday night You feel your backbone trembling your body's wrong, but it feels so right [Chorus] She's a wicked woman stirrin' poison in the well Black cat eyes and a crooked halo call it love, I call it hell I don't want her casting that spell on me She'll lie, she'll cheat, do anything she pleases and you'll rot away while she walks free [Verse 2] She keeps her secrets in a tin box under the bed Names and numbers, broken vows every tear some poor fool shed She'll kiss you in the kitchen while she's watchin' all your doors By the time you notice chains around you she's already counting more [Chorus] She's a wicked woman stirrin' poison in the well Black cat eyes and a crooked halo call it love, I call it hell I don't want her casting that spell on me She'll lie, she'll cheat, do anything she pleases and you'll rot away while she walks free [Bridge] She's mixin' up her story like potions in a jar A whisper here, a promise there she'll drag you way too far Once you're in her circle you won't know what's yours or hers Your days turn into ashes while she laughs and clinks her spurs (ohh) [Instrumental] [Intricate guitar solo: starts low and moaning, climbs into fast, tangled runs, then bends and burns over the turnaround] [Chorus] She's a wicked woman stirrin' poison in the well Black cat eyes and a crooked halo call it love, I call it hell I don't want her casting that spell on me She'll lie, she'll cheat, she'll twist every story and you'll rot away while she walks free [Outro] So when you see her steppin' through the smoke and wine Turn your collar to the cold wind, boy don't you cross that line 'Cause she's a wicked woman you can feel it by the way she smiles I won't let her cast that spell upon me I'd rather walk alone a thousand miles
