Subject: RE: How many fallen women does it take?
That "long-legged street-walkin' Cajun-lookin devil" in the Kris Kristofferson song "SMOKEY PUT THE SWEAT ON ME" sounds like a candidate.

"DEVIL WOMAN" ("Devil woman, let me go...leave me alone, I wanna go home") Don't know who wrote it.

"DELILAH" (I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blinds). Though she didn't last long!

"Miss Nellie Bly [sp???]" Named as "The other woman" in some versions of "FRANKIE AND JOHNNY" (Including Michelle Shocked's excellent version).

Does "Felina" [sp??] from Rosa's cantina count? or is merely dancing in a cantina OK even tho' "Black as the night were the eyes of Felina, wicked & evil while casting their spell"? [EL PASO by Marty Robbins]

Decidedly, women are the root of all evil- can't live with 'em, & it's illegal to shoot 'em.

OH FOR GOD@S SAKE, I'M ONLY KIDDING!!!
