Doug Balmain - Dancin' With the Devil



I thank god for bad times that have blessed my life
Thank god for my misery my sorrow and my strife
I plunged down to the depths and the bottom I did find
There's nowhere to go but up and soon I'll be on high
Dancin' with the Devil ain't always so bad
It gets you to remember better times that you've had
How can you appreciate dancin' with the stars
If you've never drank alone inside a smoke filled bar
How blue is the boy born with a silver spoon
Been made right on top ever since the womb
Instead of growin' up a man he's just somebodys son
He's the owner of much but the maker of none
Dancin' with the Devil ain't always so bad
It gets you to remember better times that you've had
How can you appreciate dancin' with the stars
If you've never drank alone inside a smoke filled bar
Trials and tribulations they make and shape and mold
Without pain and sorrow you're just an empty soul
So when the dark sets in and the Devil grabs your hand
Dancin' with the Devil ain't always so bad
It gets you to remember better times that you've had
How can you appreciate dancin' with the stars
If you've never drank alone inside a smoke filled bar
So when you're down 'n out and you're feelin' kinda poor
Do a jig with that ole Devil, burn a hole right through the floor
So when youre down n out and youre feelin kinda poor
Do a jig with that ole Devil, burn a hole right through the floor
