Perry Como - Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

I don't want you
But I hate to lose you
You got me in between
The devil and the deep blue sea!

I forgive you
'Cause I can't forget you
You got me in between
The devil and the deep blue sea!

I ought to cross you off my list
But when you come a knockin' at my door
Fate seems to give my heart a twist
And I keep runnin' back for more!

I should hate you
But I guess I love you
You got me in between
The devil and the deep blue sea!

You got me in between
The devil and the deep blue sea!
Hmm, you got me in between
The devil and the deep blue sea!

I ought to cross you off my list
But when you come a knockin' at my door
Fate seems to give my heart a twist
And I keep runnin' back for more!

Hmm, I should hate you
But I guess I love you
You got me in between
The devil and the deep blue sea!

You got me in between
The devil...and the deep blue sea!...and the deep blue sea!
