Lyrics

The daughter of the devil with her hair like fire
Filled me with whiskey and stole my desire
The emeralds in her eyes and the diamonds in her smile
Hid a black coal heart she used to beguile
Many a man and many many more
Lost hearts by her hand and fell to the floor
She danced like a demon intent on deceiving
For an angel more fair I'd not seen
If only I'd known I'd have run for my home
She's as pretty as she can be mean
For the love of a woman a man can go mad
For the love of a woman give all that he has
For the love of a woman a man can go blind
And I was ready to die
Iye yie yie yie yie
With a razor sharp whit I convinced her to stay
Though my bottle was empty and she meant to away
The fork in her tongue as sharp as a knife
She had no intention of becoming a wife
Many a man and many many more
Lost hearts by her hand and fell to the floor
When into the pub burst a lover she'd snubbed
A truly gargantuan man
The fear in her eyes and the scream of surprise
Said it wasn't a part of her plan
For the love of a woman a man can go mad
For the love of a woman give all that he has
For the love of a woman a man can go blind
And I was ready to die
Iye yie yie yie yie
Iye yie yie yie
Iye yie yie yie
Iye yie yie yie yie
He threw a left, I threw a right
We went to blows she screamed in fright
My blood was drawn but I won that fight
Then at the dawn I held her tight
She said be mine forever more
I wiped her tears and said of course
The date was set we then were wed
A month later I left our bed
Went out to meet that angry man
And I payed him well as was the plan
For the love of a woman a man can go mad
For the love of a woman give all that he has
For the love of a woman a man can go blind
But I had made her mine
Iye yie yie yie yie
