Shake Hands With The Devil
Pretty lady, look at me
I'm a sailor from the sea
I can take you anywhere
You can join me, do you dare?

In a scabbard soft as gold
I can show you pretty secrets
Human lips have never told


And she said, "Sailor, come with me
Is it lonesome on the sea?
Is there shelter for your head
Like the comfort of my bed?"


Love is harder than a diamond
And as soft and pure as gold
And it's sweet as any secret
Any sailor ever told


Pretty lady, look at me
I'm a sailor from the sea
I can take you anywhere
You can join me, do you dare?
