Devil In A Sundress

(Verse 1 ) She walks in like July, White cotton, red sky, Sunday bells still ringing in her hair. Sweet tea on her lips, Sunlight on her hips, Lord help the boys just standing there. Mama says she’s trouble, Daddy says behave, But she’s been dancing on the edge Of everything they’re scared to say. ⸻ (Pre-Chorus) Halo in the daylight, Horns in the dark, Sugar on her tongue But she strikes like a spark. ⸻ (Chorus) She’s a devil in a sundress, Barefoot in the flame, Looks like heaven in the headlights But she don’t play that game. She’ll kiss you like a prayer, Then leave you like a storm, Yeah she’s a little bit of mercy And a little bit of wrong. She’s a devil in a sundress And she knows it’s what she is. ⸻ (Verse 2) Lipstick like a warning sign Drawn across the county line, She don’t beg and she don’t confess. Boys fall like dominoes, Think they’re driving, but she knows She’s the match in the mess. She learned early pretty’s power, Don’t mistake it for grace, Some girls wear their innocence— She weaponized her lace. ⸻ (Pre-Chorus) Bible on the dashboard, Sin in her smile, She ain’t running nowhere— She’s just staying a while. ⸻ (Chorus – Bigger, harmonies) She’s a devil in a sundress, Barefoot in the flame, Looks like heaven in the headlights But she don’t play that game. She’ll kiss you like a prayer, Then leave you like a storm, Yeah she’s a little bit of mercy And a little bit of wrong. She’s a devil in a sundress And she knows it’s what she is. ⸻ (Bridge – Harmonized) They call her reckless, She calls it free. You say temptation, She says “that’s me.” If loving her’s a gamble, You knew the odds were high— She don’t apologize. ⸻ (Final Chorus – Big outro) She’s a devil in a sundress, Dancing in the flame, If you’re looking for an angel Boy, you’re in the wrong lane. Little bit of mercy, Little bit of wild— Yeah she’s heaven with a history And she drives you wild.
