| Her breath began to speak
|
| As she stood right in front of me The colour of her eyes
|
| Were the colour of insanity
|
| Crushed beneath her wave
|
| Like a ship, I could not reach her shore
|
| We’re all just dancers on the Devil’s Dance Floor
|
| Well swing a little more, little more o’er the merry-o
|
| Swing a little more, a 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
|
| But nothin' ever came
|
| From a life that was a simple one
|
| So pull yourself together girl
|
| And have a little fun
|
| Well she took me by the hand
|
| I could see she was a fiery one
|
| Her legs ran all the way
|
| Up to heaven and past Avalon
|
| Tell me somethin' girl, what it is you have in store
|
| She said come with me now
|
| On the Devil’s Dance Floor
|
| Well swing a little more, little more o’er the merry-o
|
| Swing a little more, a 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
|
| Well swing a little more, little more o’er the merry-o
|
| Swing a little more, a 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 is sweet
|
| Oh much sweeter than it ought to be Another little bite
|
| I don’t think there is much hope for me The sweat beneath her brow
|
| Travels all the way
|
| An' headin' south
|
| This bleedin' heart’s cryin'
|
| Cause there’s no way out
|
| Well swing a little more, little more o’er the merry-o
|
| Swing a little more, a 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
|
| Well swing a little more, little more o’er the merry-o
|
| Swing a little more, a 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 |
