I'm leaving you
Woman before I commit a crime
I'm gonna leave you
Woman before I commit a crime
You tried so hard to kill me
Woman, it was just not my time

You put poison in my coffee
Instead of milk or cream
You put poison in my coffee
Instead of milk or cream
You're the evilest woman
That I've ever seen

You mix my drink
With a can of Red Devil lye
You mix my drink
With a can of Red Devil lye
Then you sit down
Watch me, hoping I might die
