Lyrics for Evil Woman as interpreted by Kenobi65

Evil Woman Lyrics
You made a fool of me, but them broken dreams have got to end.

Hey woman, you got the blues, 'cos you ain't got no one else to use,
There's an open road that leads nowhere, so just make some miles between here and there.
There's a hole in my head where the rain comes in
You took my body and played to win.
Ha Ha woman it's a crying shame,
But you ain't got nobody else to blame

Chorus:
Evil Woman, Evil Woman, Evil Woman, Evil Woman

Rolled in from another town,
Hit some gold too hot to settle down,
But a fool and his money soon go separate ways,
And you found a fool lyin' in a daze,
Ha Ha woman what you gonna do,
You destroyed all the virtues that the Lord gave you.
It's so good that you're feelin' pain
But you better get your face on board the very next train.

Chorus: repeat

Evil woman how you done me wrong,
But now you're tryin' to wail a different song.
Ha Ha funny how you broke me up, you made the wine now you drink a cup.
I came runnin' every time you cried,
Thought I saw love smilin' in your eyes,
Ha Ha very nice to know, that you ain't go no place left to go.

Chorus: repeat

Just a point of interest: the string crescendo about 3/4 of the way through the song (just before the final verse) is a backwards-tracked version of the strings from the song "Nightrider." Both songs originally appeared on the album "Face the Music."

This song is about how a girl treats the boy she likes like he doesn't exist. Therefore the boy thinks she is an Evil Woman hence the name of the song. It's happend to me many times.

In 2006, "Face the Music" was re-released, with several bonus tracks, including a different, "Stripped Down Mix" version of "Evil Woman". That version includes a fourth verse:

Hang out for just a while
And I'll tell you a story that'll make you smile
'Bout a dark-eyed woman with a Cadillac
But all she had was on her back
Well, a fool rushed in, and thought he saw
Just the kind of woman that he'd adore
She lay beside him and turned on her charms
But this devil's woman sure knows how to do you wrong

a good summary of how women use you up and make you look like a fool.

Nobody intrigued by the singer's hole in his head? Maybe the woman is evil enough to commit murder, which is why she has nowhere to go but better leave town.

The "hole in [his] head where the rain comes in" is actually an obvious reference to the Beatles song "Fixing a Hole," Jeff Lynne worked with the Beatles.

The original version of this song had a fourth verse, but they dropped it because there were no music parts for it.
