Woman of the World (Leave My World Alone) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You came from the city streets to my little country town
Your spell is on my baby and you've got me sorrow-bound
You don't really love him, you're playing round for fun
Woman of the world, leave my world alone

[Chorus]
You're the devil's woman
That's what my man don't know
Why, I wear more in swimming
Than you wear to parties where you go
There's a place I know where you should go
For that's where you belong
Woman of the world
Leave my world alone

[Verse 2]
I don't know about the things the bright lights taught to you
My country boy don't know them any better than I do
I'll have to watch him hurting after you are gone
Woman of the world, leave my world alone

[Chorus]
You're the devil's woman
That's what my man don't know
Why, I wear more in swimming
Than you wear to parties where you go
There's a place I know where you should go
For that's where you belong
Woman of the world
Leave my world alone

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
