If the Devil Danced (In Empty Pockets) - The Mick Lloyd Connection

Diablo motors had a hell of a sale

Downtown yesterday

Word got around no money down take

Years and years to pay

When I got there the lot was bare

But the salesman said "Hold on"

For a little cash I gotta two-tone

Nash out behind the barn

If the Devil danced in empty pockets

He'd have a ball in mine

With a nine foot grand a ten piece band

And a twelve girl chorus line

I'd raise some loot in a three piece suit

Give one dance for a dime

If the Devil Danced in empty pockets

He'd have a ball in mine

Well he said "Friend it ain't the end

Let's see what I can do

If you own a home I've got a loan

Tailor made for you"

Then above the racket a voice in my

Jacket said "I'll tote the note"

The Devil made me do it talked me

In to it and that was all she wrote

If the Devil danced in empty pockets

He'd have a ball in mine

With a nine foot grand a ten piece band

And a twelve girl chorus line

I'd raise some loot in a three piece suit

Give 'em one dance for a dime

If the Devil Danced in empty pockets

He'd have a ball in mine

They say debt is a bottomless pit where

The Devil likes to play

I'd sell my soul to get out of this hole

But there'd be hell to pay

If the Devil danced in empty pockets

He'd have a ball in mine

With a nine foot grand a ten piece band

And a twelve girl chorus line

I'd raise some loot in a three piece suit

Give 'em one dance for a dime

If the Devil Danced in empty pockets

He'd have a ball in mine
