Devil in Red

Polissa Campbell 1983 (Russellville)

Cherry bomb in my head
Pretty little mama all in red
Fever dream under the skin
Really wanna getcha in my bed

Now she got me hypnotized
With a devilish smile and angels eye

Pretty lil mama make me wanna sin
Come on pretty baby let the fun begin

Cherry Bomb in my head
Pretty Little Mama all in red
The way she way walks could scortch the earth
Makes a grown man know his worth
