The Devil's Triangle

Composed by：Higgins Elbert Joseph

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've got to try to steer her true

'Cause you can't have your ale

And drink it too

I 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 turn my head around

Now I'm drowning in this whirlpool of love

It's pulling me down

Now 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 helluva tangle

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 the paddle wheeler and the whaler

Soon they'll both be gone

And I swear by my tattoo 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 helluva tangle

Lord have mercy on me

Just one helluva tangle

Lord have mercy on me
