Livin in a shack in a one-horse town Trying to get to heaven 'fore the sun goes down Lizard in a bottle Dizzy in a haze for 40 days Hey there little devil Come on little devil be my little angel Come on little devil be my angel She came on with an alligator smile Dynamite lover scorpion child She came on with a cyclone kiss Hey there baby you don't never miss Lizard in a bottle Hey there little devil Come on little devil be my little angel Come on little devil and be my angel Come on little devil be my little angel Come on little devil and be my angel | |
