Evil On Your Mind - Ella Fitzgerald

You say I need a rest

Why don't I go and see my sister way out west

That's very thoughtful of you dear

And I'm really touched with all this tenderness

But us women are suspicious things

We know that men aren't born with wings

What's making you so kind Now I'm not smart

But I'm not blind and I think

That you've got evil on your mind

You think that you've been good about as long

As most red blooded human could

We've been together for so long

I know another pasture's looking good

But don't think that other men don't look at me

That certain way from time to time

Don't think that you're the only one

That must contend with evil on your mind

Your mind is in a harem

And surrounded by exotic dancing girls

You're hearing pretty music

As they run their slender fingers through your curls

Ahh dream on baby

I thank you for the flowers and the candy

Honey that was very kind

For that's your way of telling me

You're sorry for the evil on your mind evil on your mind
