Wicked

by Lee Ann Womack

on The Lonely, The Lonesome & The Gone (2017)

You can't blend in down in San Jacinto
With long blond hair and an orange El Camino
Two things I never thought I'd need to get by
A .38 Special and an alibi

Oh, wicked is as wicked does
And if this ain't wicked
Well it's close enough
I thought I was good
And maybe I was
But wicked is as wicked does

There's a Thunderhead forming in the rearview mirror
Every time I check, it's a little bit nearer
Whatever I get, I guess I've earned
But I never heard anyone who didn't deserve it

Oh, wicked is as wicked does
And if this ain't wicked
Well it's close enough
I thought I was good
And maybe I was
But wicked is as wicked does

Something had to happen
Something had to be done
And it turns out I'm pretty good with a gun
It doesn't make it right but it is what it is
And any mama in the world would've done what I did

Hey, wicked is as wicked does
And if this ain't wicked
Well it's close enough
I thought I was good
And maybe I was
But wicked is as wicked does

I thought I was good and maybe I was
But wicked is as wicked does

You can't blend in down in San Jacinto
With long blond hair and an orange El Camino
