HER WICKED SMILE

Mary Lee was a killer
Awaiting trial on death row
She murdered 15 men
And buried them under the winter snow
And Henry James was a hangman
Mary caught his eye
She looked so beautiful
He promised that he wouldn't let her die

She smiled her wicked smile

The hangman came at midnight
And freed her from her cell
They tiptoed past the guards
And headed for the Paradise Motel
She led him to the back room
He followed under her spell
She slit his throat with razor
Whispered that she'd see him in hell

She smiled her wicked smile
