She told me not to step on the cracks
I told her not to fuss and relax
Pretty little thing stopped me in my tracks
But now she sleeps with one eye open
But that's the price she'll pay
I took a knife and cut out her eye
I took it home and watched it wither and die
Well, she's lucky that I didn't slip her a smile
That's why she sleeps with one eye open
But that's the price she'll pay
I said, "Hey, girl with one eye
Get your filthy fingers out of my pie"
I said, "Hey, girl with one eye
I'll cut your little heart out 'cause you made me cry"
I slipped my hand under her skirt
I said, "Don't worry, oh-oh, it's not gonna hurt"
Oh, my reputation's kind of clouded with dirt
That's why she sleeps with one eye open
But that's the price you'll pay
I said, "Hey, girl with one eye
Get your filthy fingers out of my pie"
I said, "Hey, girl with one eye
I'll cut your little heart out 'cause you made me cry"
You made me cry
You made me cry
You made me cry
I said, "Hey, girl with one eye
Get your filthy fingers out of my pie"
I said, "Hey, girl with one eye
Get your filthy fingers out of my pie"
And I said, "Hey, girl with one eye, oh
Get your filthy fingers out of my pie"
And I said, "Hey, girl with one eye
I'll cut your little heart out 'cause you made me cry"
