Devil Eyes - Honeyman


I got so tired of meaningful looks
I got so tired of comin' up tame
I get so bothered with those balmy breezes
They was a crawlin'
Underneath my skin

‘Til mama came a runnin'
mixin' that devil rum
'Til mama came a runnin' mixin' that devil rum
Mama came a runnin'
Taking about those devil eyes
Taking about those devil eyes

Those devil eyes
Lord they stare right through me
Those devil eyes
Look right through me

Show me what I want,
Show me what I'm made for

Down between the sheets, doing the monkey rub
Down between the sheets, doing the monkey rub
Down between the sheets, doing the monkey rub

Woman, pull those black silk stockings down
Oh, woman pull those black silk stockings down
Well I'm gonna lick all around those stretch marks
Get my tongue between the toes

Up inside the knee and follow the loin

Down between the sheets, doing the monkey rub
Down between the sheets, doing the monkey rub
Look at that big ol' girl, doing the monkey rub

Ah those devil eyes they look right through me
Those devil eyes they look right through me
Show me what I want,
Show me what I'm made for

Down between the sheets, do the monkey rub

I got so tired of meaningful looks
I got so tired of comin' up tame
I get so bothered with those balmy breezes
TI get an itching
Oh down beneath my skin

Taking about those devil eyes
Taking about those devil eyes

Those devil eyes
They look right through me
Those devil eyes
Look right through me
Show me what I want,
Show me what I'm made for

Down between the sheets
