Now Adam and Evil, they go hand in hand

Eve taught him sin, that's the way it all began

But every time you kiss me, my heart pounds like a drum

So trouble is a woman, trouble here I come

I'm lonely like Adam, you're evil like Eve

I shouldn't take forbidden fruit 'cause I believe

I'll be heading straight for heartache

I should cut loose and run

But if loving you means heartache

Heartache, here I come

You're not the angel that I dreamed about

But you're the devil I don't want to live without

A woman's a woman, a man is a man

I can't be free I'm just putty in your hands

Who cares about tomorrow, I need your love tonight

And even if you're evil, baby hold me tight

You're not the angel that I dreamed about

But you're the devil I don't want to live without

A woman's a woman, a man is a man

I can't be free I'm just putty in your hands

Who cares about tomorrow, I need your love tonight

And baby if you're evil, baby hold me tight

Hold me tight
