Terrible Woman

You'll never understand
Why she do what she do
She's your greatest mystery
un-erasable history
and time will tell
is she an angel or jezebel
in her arms
there's no heaven without a hell

She is a terrible woman
she will leave you before
you can walk out that door
she don't mean no harm she's just running away

but she's your baby
let her know
she's your lady
don't let her go
you have to tell her
tell her to come back home
tell her tell her
she's your terrible woman
but you need her still
but you need her still
she's your terrible woman

she's your crown of thorns
she's your cross to bare
she's the storm inside of you
she's the wind in your hair
and time will reveal
love is a bitter pill
so take your honey
and surely your heart will heal

she is your terrible woman
her heart is gold
and her love is bold
she is your terrible woman
she's just a little girl inside
who's just running away
she don't mean no harm she's just running away

but she's your baby
let her know
she's your lady
don't let her go
you have to tell her tell her
to come back home
tell her tell her
she's your terrible woman
but you need her still
but you need her still
she's your terrible woman
