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 got a 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
Well, I'd raise some loot in a three-piece suit, and give 'em 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, "Hey, I'll tote the note"
The devil made me do it, he talked me into it, 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
Ah-they say debt is a bottomless pit where the devil likes to play
Well, I'd sell my soul to get out of this hole, but there'd be hell to pay
Oh yeah!
Ah, nah!
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
Yeah, 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
