Down in the graveyard where we have out 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 Now I know his name, he's gonna set you free Human skulls is hanging right round his neck The palms of my hands feel clammy and wet
I was dancing dancing dancing so free I was dancing dancing dancing so free Dancing Lord take you hands off me Dancing with Mister D., with Mister D., with Mister D.
Will it be poison 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 of a Toussaint night Hiding round a corner in New York city Looking down a 44 in West Virginia I was dancing, dancing, dancing so free I was dancing, dancing, dancing so free Dancing with Mister D.
Mister D., Mister D., Mister D., Mister D. Dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing Dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing
Dancing, dancing, dancing, so free I was dancing, dancing, dancing so free Dancing Lord take your hands off me Dancing with Mister D., Mister D., Mister D.
One night I was dancing with a lady in black Wearing black silk gloves and a black silk hat She looked at me longing with black velvet eyes She gazed at me strange all cunning and wise Then I saw the flesh just fall of her bones The eyes in her skull were just burning like coals Lord have mercy fire and brimstone I was dancing with Mister D. Dancing, dancing, dancing, so free I was dancing, dancing, dancing so free Dancing Lord take your hands off me Dancing with Mister D.
