The Devil's Dance Floor
I quick began to speak,
As she stood right in front of me,
The color of her eyes,
Were the color of insanity,
Crushed beneath her wave,
Like a ship, I could not reach the shore,
We're all just dancers on the Devil's dance floor,
Swing a little more, little more, o'er the merry-o,
Swing a little more, little more next to me,
Swing a little more, little more, o'er the merry-o,
Swing a little more, on the Devil's dance floor,
Pressed against her face,
I could feel her insecurity,
Her mother'd been a drunk,
And her father was obscurity,
Nothing ever came from her life,
That was a simple one,
Pull yourself together girl,
And have a little fun,
Well she took me by the hand,
I could see she was a flirty one,
Her legs ran all the way,
Up to heaven and past Avalon,
Tell me something girl,
What it is you have in store,
She said, "Come with me now,
On the Devil's dance floor!"
Swing a little more, little more, o'er the merry-o,
Swing a little more, little more next to me,
Swing a little more, little more, o'er the merry-o,
Swing a little more, on the Devil's dance floor,
Swing a little more, on the Devil's dance floor,
Swing a little more, little more, o'er the merry-o,
Swing a little more, little more next to me,
Swing a little more, little more, o'er the merry-o,
Swing a little more, on the Devil's dance floor,
The apple, now, was sweet,
So much sweeter than it ought to be,
Another little bite,
And I don't think there is much hope for me,
The sweat beneath her brow,
Travels all the way, and headin' south,
Bleeding hearts crying,
'Cause there's no way out!
Swing a little more, little more, o'er the merry-o,
Swing a little more, little more next to me,
Swing a little more, little more, o'er the merry-o,
Swing a little more, on the Devil's dance floor,
Swing a little more, little more, o'er the merry-o,
Swing a little more, little more next to me,
Swing a little more, little more, o'er the merry-o,
Swing a little more, on the Devil's dance floor,
Swing a little more, on the Devil's dance floor,
Swing a little more, on the Devil's dance floor!
