Evil lyrics
by Steve Earle
Lee aims a gun at Johnny's head
Says you might as well be dead, dead, dead
Your blood on the floor
Your footsteps still warm
With a racing heart he walks away
And he begins to pray, pray, pray
That no one will know
He won’t let it show
Evil simple as a rose
Evil by any other name
Evil simple as a rose
A woman passes and he smiles
And he follows her for miles and miles
Little does she know
What her future holds
