Evil Hearted Man

Lyrics: Traditional/Josh White
Music: Traditional/Josh White

Performed by Robert Hunter in 1997.

Well, the sun rose this morning
I was feeling mighty bad
Well, my baby said, good morning
Hell, it made me so mad

'Cause l'm evil, evil-hearted me
I am so god-damn evil, I'm evil as a man can be

My baby made me breakfast
She brought it to my bed
I took a sip of coffee
Threw the cup at her head

'Cause l'm evil, evil-hearted me
I am so doggone evil, I'm evil as a man can be

I don't even care
If my baby leaves me flat
'Cause I got forty-leven others
If it comes to that

'Cause l'm evil, evil-hearted me
I am so god-damn evil, I'm as evil as a man can be

Well you know I don't even care
If it rains from now on
Or if the woman I love
Had never been born

'Cause l'm evil, evil-hearted me
I am so evil, I'm as evil as a man can be
