Her breath 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

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
Nothing 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 something 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

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 and heading south
Bleeding heart's crying '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

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
