J. J. Cale - Devil’s Nurse lyrics

Down along the palm treesin a south kind of bay

There was a young womanwalked the beach every day

She had long dark hair and a high heeled size

She was full in the bosomwith dark brown eyes

A devil's woman

With the devil's curse

Satan's lady

She was the devil's nurse

Fortune-teller sister long and bred

Lay down next to you and stroke your head

She had a way about herit's hard to explain

Brings chills to your body and blood to your veins

A devil's woman

With the devil's curse

Satan's lady

She was the devil's nurse

She can make the sun rise and the sun set and the blues go away

Turn light into darkness and night into day

She was from a casualty sectorlost in the night

A bonafide spiritual ladya congo's delight

A devil's woman

With the devil's curse

Satans' lady

She was the devil's nurse
