Ain't No Blues

You gotta outdance the devil with me
You gotta outdance the devil with me, lord
You gotta outdance the devil come the midnight hour
You gotta outdance the devil with me

heave an old trashcan on the floor
drag your broken leg through the fire
you gotta spit like a curse and drop to your knees
there ain't nothin here for free

You gotta outdance the devil with me
You gotta outdance the devil with me, lord
You gotta outdance the devil come the midnight hour
You gotta outdance the devil with me

cover your eye with an old felt patch
touch your elbow to your knee, lord
if they see you, they'll believe you
i can't breathe no more
you got 'em fallin' out of them trees

You gotta outdance the devil with me
You gotta outdance the devil with me, lord
You gotta outdance the devil come the midnight hour
You gotta outdance the devil with me
