Maddhatr - Dance with the Devil (Acoustic)

I met a girl in the city, she could sense that I was good
A boy that could love her like a man never could
She liked Knick games, cocaine, the high life, no chump change
No back streets or taxis, just hotels and backseats

She had a Wall Street lover and lots of famous friends
A condo on the east side and a new Mercedes Benz
She sold her soul and she'd sell it again
To those who dance with the devil
And it was my turn to dance

Well I hailed a yellow cab, pulled up to a Motel 6
I could tell that she wasn't to used to life like this
She liked the five stars, the sky bars, the bright lights and fast cars
No love or no passion, just drugs, sex and fashion

She had a Wall Street lover and lots of famous friends
A condo on the east side and a new Mercedes Benz
She sold her soul and she'd sell it again
To those who dance with the devil
And it was my turn to dance

Well I woke in the morning to a letter on the sheets
It said, "Thanks dance partner, this one is on me"
She left no name, no trace, a memory misplaced
No way to discover my New York lover

And I searched Manhattan 'til the day came to an end
For the high class woman who gave a poor boy a chance
She sold her soul again and again
To those who dance with the devil
And it was my turn to dance
