Devil and the Deep Blue Sea Lyrics by The Killigans

Another Round for the Strong of Heart

0

They say a black soul wears a white shirt
Beneath the skin true malevolence will hide
Look a man in the eye as he stands on your back
And keep your company always in shirts of black
Your hatred pulls you down to the cold hard ground
Relenting grip subdues your cry
Abhorrence fueled by desperate days
Eternally resolved, hold fast, your life slips by
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
Between the devil and the deep blue sеa
Between the devil and thе deep blue sea
Between the devil...
A man can never know how well his ship floats
The mother of all mighty storms may drag the bastard down
Sinking ships in the night fight with all of their will
May they never die with wildmen at the helm
Well come away with me to the ends of the sea
And leave behind lands, title, and your shame
Hang one foot in the grave, toast aloud to better days
Forgive our enemies but don't forget their names
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
Influence knows no boundary
Deliver ourselves from wrong
Pestilence grows between us
As our reverence now is gone
Black souls
White shirt
Your sins will drag you down
Black soul
White shirt
Your sins will drag you down
