Lyrics
[Verse 1] Down in the graveyard where we have our tryst The air smells sweet, the air smells thick He never smiles, his mouth merely twists The breath in my lungs feels clinging and thick But I know his name, he's called Mr. D And one of these days, he's gonna set you free Human skull hanging right around his neck The palms of my hands is clammy and wet [Chorus] Lord, I was dancing, dancing, dancing so free Dancing, dancing, dancing so free Dancing, Lord, keep your hands off me Dancing with Mr. D Yeah Well, well [Verse 2] Will it be poison put in my glass? Will it be slow, or will it be fast? The bite of a snake, the sting of a spider A drink of Belladonna on a Toussaint night Hiding in a corner in New York City Looking down a .44 in West Virginia [Chorus] I was dancing, dancing, dancing so free Dancing, dancing, dancing so free Dancing, Lord, keep your hands off me Dancing with Mr. D Yeah [Guitar solo] I was dancing, dancing, dancing so free Dancing, dancing, dancing so free Dancing, Lord, keep your hand off me Dancing with Mr. D Yeah Saints alive Well well, well well [Verse 3] One night, I was dancing with a lady in black Wearing black silk gloves and a black silk hat She looked at strange with black velvet eyes She gazed at me strange, all cunning and wise I saw the flesh just fall off her bones The eyes in her skull was burning like coals Lord, have mercy, fire and brimstone I was dancing with [Chorus] I was dancing Dancing, dancing and dancing I was dancing, dancing, dancing so free Dancing, dancing, dancing so free Dancing, Lord, keep your hands off me Dancing with Mr. D Well, well, oh yeah Ooh yeah All right [Something French?] We're going to do "Do do d-d-d-do," Keith?
