I ain't never been scared of dying
Everybody has to go sometime
When I say that I ain't lying
You only die once in a lifetime
But when it comes to facing you
Well baby that's taboo
Cause I'm so scared of you.

You got the evil eye
No matter how hard I try
I can't get my eyes off you
I'm shaking in my shoes
I just can't refuse
There ain't nothing I can do.

(Sax Solo)

You terrify me
Petrify me
Oooh with your voodoo
You hypnotize me
Paralyze me
I'm so, so scared of you.

I ain't never backed out a fist fight
Got black eyes and a broken nose
And I can drink all day and drink all night
And come out smelling like a rose
But when it comes to fighting you
Honey, I'm all through
Cause I'm so scared of you.

You got the evil eye
No matter how hard I try
I can't get my mind off you
I'm shaking in my shoes
I just can't refuse
There ain't nothing I can do.

(Sax Solo)

You terrify me
Petrify me
Oooh with your voodoo
You hypnotize me
Paralyze me
I'm so, so scared of you.

I ain't never been afraid of spiders and snakes
Rats, bats, and worms
Tidal waves and earthquakes
And I drink away the germs
But when it comes to facing you
Oh baby, I'm all through
Cause I'm so scared of you
Honey, I'm so scared of you.
