Sailin' 'Cross the Devil's Sea

Lyrics

Lately I don't know where I went wrong
 But the spell of that pretty young girl is far too strong
 Between her fine perfume and angel face
 My whole world became another place
 The dark side of her intelligence was so strong
 Soon there'll be no difference in right or wrong
 Next thing I know I had a key that unlocked her door
 I could not wait to hear the siren song
 The beginning of the end of my happy home
 Sailin', sailing 'cross the devil's sea, oh
 Too blind in love, too blind to see
 Heard them say the paybacks double-fold
 Just can't seem to remember who I bought and sold
 I'll probably still be here when you come around next year
 Trying to climb from this deep dark hole
 I'll be damned if I just don't feel I'm growin' old
 Sailing, sailing 'cross the devil's sea, oh
 Too blind in love, too blind to see
 'Cause she was evil than evil, slippery like a fox
 Set me up with pain and woe and I swear it won't seem to stop
 If I could just remove her hook deep from within my soul
 Swear I'll leave and not come back, just let me out that door
 Sailin', sailing 'cross the devil's sea, oh
 Too blind in love, too blind to see
