The Devil’s Triangle Songtext
von Bertie Higgins

Old Joseph tried to tell me
He said, "Boy, you′ve been warned
A hurricane hath no fury
Like a mermaid scorned"
Once you set that sail
You got to try to steer her true
'Cause you can′t have your ale and drink it too
Remember when I first stared
Into your sexy sea-green eyes
I thought you hung that Havana moon
And the Southern Cross in the sky
Then she came along
And spun my head around
Now I'm drowning in this whirlpool of love
It's pulling me down


It′s the devil′s triangle
You and me and she
It's a whole different angle
′Cause two and one make three
The devil's triangle
Ain′t much of a mystery
It's just one hell of a tango
Lord have mercy on me

I remember what that old man told me
′Bout swimming against the tide
To try to have two to hold me
Was just a one way ride
Like a paddle wheeler and a whaler
Soon they'll both be gone
And I swear by my tattooed sailor
It's a living hell to die alone

It′s the devil′s triangle
You and me and she
It's a whole different angle
′Cause two and one make three
The devil's triangle
Ain′t much of a mystery
It's just one hell of a tango
Lord have mercy on me

Here we are lost out on the sea
It can′t be me with her
It's got to be you with me


The devil's triangle
You and me and she
It′s a whole different angle
′Cause two and one make three
The devil's triangle
Ain′t much of a mystery
It's just one hell of a tango
Lord have mercy on me

The devil′s triangle
You and me and she
It's a whole different angle
′Cause two and one make three
