So, I got a request from a woman in Oklahoma, by way of New York, asking for links or lyrics to songs about Women Who Behave Badly - really evil women, not just crafty or bold women (although we could collect those, too).

I'm not coming up with many just now, so can anybody help?

The one I think of first is "Hard Hearted Hannah."

and The Jew's Daughter

I don't know if Louise qualifies, because she's not half bad.

She's not really evil, but I certainly appreciate The Maid on the Shore

And of course, there's the elder of the Two Sisters

And what about the wife in Marrow Bones?

Does a jilted lover qualify? Just what exactly is it that Miss Otis Regrets?

And why is that cowardly, evil woman wearing a Long Black Veil?
