Been through all the 12 steps, made it back safe and sound
Made ammends with Heavens help to those I’ve knocked around
But tonight I need a 2-step, in one of my ol’ haunts
No fights, no booze, not gonna pick up where I left off
If you’re gonna dance with the Devil, you’d better mind your step
You’re bound to slip and fall and caterwaul and trip on your regrets
Keep the faith and let yourself be free
‘Cus if you’re gonna dance with the Devil, you might as well take the lead
The boys are on the bandstand, cowboys, girls, and all the crew
I’m on my guard ‘cus at every turn temptation’s wearing boots
I still don’t know any better, so I best get out of here
Too much, too soon, too heavy, somebody better hold my beer
If you’re gonna dance with the Devil, you’d better mind your step
You’re bound to slip and fall and caterwaul and trip on your regrets
Keep the faith and let yourself be free
‘Cus if you’re gonna dance with the Devil, you might as well take the lead
Been through all the 12 steps, made it back safe and sound
Made ammends with Heavens help to those I’ve knocked around
But tonight I need a 2-step, in one of my ol’ haunts
No fights, no booze, not gonna pick up where I left off
If you’re gonna dance with the Devil, you’d better mind your step
You’re bound to slip and fall and caterwaul and trip on your regrets
Keep the faith and let yourself be free
‘Cus if you’re gonna dance with the Devil, you might as well take the lead
If you’re gonna dance with the Devil
You might as well take the lead
