The music flowed
Across the graves
Through many shadows
Into the cave.
“Come dance with me,”
the Devil said
and I complied
and with the dead
I danced.
And with the dead I danced.
I kicked my heels
Into the air
And so I danced
Without a care.
The dead, they laughed
And the Devil sang
And through the night
Our revelry rang.
And through the night our revelry rang.
Soon and sooner
The dawn approached
And I was still
By night encroached.
The Devil came
And invited me
To return to Hades
And forever be
By his side.
And forever be by his side.
So with the ghouls
And ghosts I fled
And waved goodbye
To the dead.
The Devil and I
We danced along
And heard the dying
Strains of song.
And heard the dying strains of song.
