[Words and Music by Wayne Shanklin]
Jezebel, Jezebel
If ever the devil was born
Without a pair of horns
It was you
Jezebel, it was you
If ever an angel fell
Jezebel, it was you
Jezebel, it was you
If ever a pair of eyes
Promised paradise
Deceiving me, grieving me
Leavin' me blue
Jezebel, it was you
If ever the devil's plan
Was made to torment man
It was you
Jezebel, it was you
Could be better that I never know
A lover such as you
Forsaking dreams and all
For the siren call of your arms
Like a demon, love possessed me
You obsessed me constantly
What evil star is mine
That my fate's design
Should be, Jezebel
If ever a pair of eyes
Promised paradise
Deceiving me, grieving me
Leavin' me blue
Jezebel, it was you
If ever the devil's plan
Was made to torment man
It was you
Night and day, every way
Jezebel, Jezebel, Jezebel

Well, buzz, buzz, buzz goes the bumble bee
Tweele, deedle, dee goes the bird
But the sound of your little voice, darling
Is the sweetest sound I've ever heard
I've seen the beauty of the red, red rose
Seen the beauty when the sky is blue
Seen the beauty of the evening sunset
But the beauty of you
Sweet as the honey from the honeycomb
Sweet are the grapes from the vine
But there's nothing as sweet as you, darling
And I hope someday you'll be mine

Hope someday you'll be mine
Hope someday you'll be mine
Hope someday you'll be mine
