A Little Wicked

"A little wicked," that's what he calls me
Cause that's what I am, that's what I am

No one calls you honey when you're sitting on a throne
No one calls you honey when you're sitting on a throne
Beware the patient woman, cause this much I know
No one calls you honey when you're sitting on a throne
One of these days a-coming, I'm gonna take that boy's crown
There's a serpent in these still waters lying deep down
To the king, I will bow, at least for now
One of these days a-coming, I'm gonna take that boy's crown

Cause I am, I am a little wicked
I am, I am
Hands red, hands red just like he said
I am a little wicked

No one calls you honey when you're sitting on a throne
I'll be high up in that tower, he'll be down there getting stoned
Beware the patient woman, cause this much I know
No one calls you honey when you're sitting on a throne

Cause I am, I am a little wicked
I am, I am
Hands red, hands red just like he said
I am a little wicked

As I lay me down to sleep
I will not scream, I will not weep
If he should die before he wakes
I'll pray the Lord his soul to take

Cause I am, I am a little wicked
I am, yes, I am
Hands red, hands red just like he said
I am a little wicked

No one calls you honey when you're sitting on a throne
No one calls you honey when you're sitting on a throne
