Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea

(album: Ella: The Legendary Decca Recordings - 1995)

I don't want you
But I hate to lose you
You've got me in between
The Devil and the deep blue sea

I forgive you
'Cause I can't forget you
You've got me in between
The Devil and the deep blue sea

I oughta 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 should hate you
But I guess I love you
You've got me in between
The Devil and the deep blue sea

I oughta 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 should hate you
But I guess I love you

[scat interlude]

You've got me in between
The Devil and the deep blue sea
