The Flapper And The Devil
The flapper came out, Saturday night
Lookin’ fine, feelin’ right
Dressed to kill, her best rags
All the guys were such a drag.
The Devil, lookin’ mighty cool
Knew he was no one’s fool
Set his sights, knew the way
She’d be his, that very day.
Chorus:
And they danced, they twirled all around the hall
At the costume party ball
They flew around, tossed their hair
Like they didn’t have a care
Like they didn’t have a care.
Flapper let it all hang out
Her moves, What dancin’s all about.
Music moved her to her soul
To merge with it became her goal.
The Devil reached through the haze
Caught her in his steely gaze
Brought her back to be his own,
Never more to dance alone

Chorus
The club on fire, band played on –
Seemed they could do nothing wrong.
Devil lead them in a cheer
Let them know the end was near,
But Flapper held her ground,
Listening to that happy sound –
Said, “We will leave, but not just now….
When we go, we’ll take a bow.”
