Mar-y is wait-in' and weep-in'__ 
Down in our shack by the sea.
Ev-en after I've hurt her,
Mar-y's still in love with me.
Dev-il woman, it's over;
Trapped no more by your charms.
'Cause I don't wan-na stay,
I wan-na get a-way.
Wo-man, let go of my arm.

To CHORUS

Verse 3
Dev-il wom-an, you're e-vil
Like the dark coral reef.
Like the winds that bring high tides,
You bring sor-row and grief.
You made me a-shamed to face Mar-y.
Barely had the strength to tell.
Skies are not so black;
Mar-y took me back.
Mar-y has broken your spell.

To CHORUS

Verse 4
Run-nin' a-long by the sea-shore,
Run-nin' as fast as I can.
Even the sea-gulls are hap-py,
Glad I'm com-in' home a-gain.
Never a-gain will I ever
Cause a-nother tear to fall.
Down the beach I see
What be-longs to me,
The one I want most of all.

To CHORUS
