Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea - Buddy Rich

I don't want you

But I hate to lose you

Cause you've got me in between

The devil and the deep blue sea

I should hate you

But I guess I love you

Cause you've got me in between

The devil and the deep blue sea

I ought to cross you off my list

But when you come knocking at my door

Fate seems to give my heart a twist

And I come running back for more

I don't want you

But I sure can lose you

Cause you've got me in between

The devil and the deep blue sea

I don't want you

But I guess I love you

You've got me in between

The devil and the sea

I should hate you

Baby I guess I love you

Cause you've got me

The devil and the deep blue sea

If I ought to cross you off my list

But when you come knocking at my door

Fate seems to give my heart a twist

And I come running back for more

I don't want you

But I guess I love you

Cause you've got me in between

The devil

I mean the devil

Oh the devil and the deep blue sea
