[Verse 1: Ray Wylie Hubbard]
The first time I saw her, felt like I did at sixteen
That was the last time my thoughts was ever clean
Knew she was unholy like a lady of the lake
The way she was dancin' to Rattlesnake Shake

[Chorus: Ray Wylie Hubbard & Larkin Poe]
Oh, the woman, oh, the woman
The woman, she knows what she do
Oh, the woman, oh, the woman
The woman, just doin' what they do

[Verse 2: Ray Wylie Hubbard]
She come up to me when my band took a break
Little angel on my shoulder whispered, "She's a mistake"
The woman licked her lips and said, "Let's go outside"
Little devil was whistling, I can't be satisfied

[Chorus: Ray Wylie Hubbard & Larkin Poe]
Oh, the woman, oh, the woman
The woman, she knows what she do
Oh, the woman, oh, the woman
The woman, just doin' what they do

[Verse 3: Ray Wylie Hubbard]
When the woman walked away I could see her tattoo
The ink above her hips read Rock and Roll, Hoochie Koo
She's dangerous as a jailbreak and fast as a runaway train
She ain't afraid to speak her mind like Natalie Maze
[Chorus: Ray Wylie Hubbard & Larkin Poe]
Oh, the woman, oh, the woman
The woman, she knows what she do
Oh, the woman, oh, the woman
The woman, just doin' what they do
Oh, the woman, oh, the woman
The woman, she knows what she do
Oh, the woman, oh, the woman
The woman, just doin' what they do
Oh, the woman, oh, the woman
The woman, she knows what she do
Oh, the woman, oh, the woman
The woman, just doin' what they do
The woman, just doin' what they do
The woman, just doin' what they do
