Dancing In the Devil's Shoes

You are not spreading the Word of the Lord

You're part of a righteous con

Just take a look at this man you follow

Look at the show you put on

The things you're doin' are hard to swallow

Yet you don't see where you are

I know you think you're walking with Jesus, girl

Parading down the path of the Lord

You are steppin' pretty sweet on your fancy feet

But you ain't got a clue what you're heading toward

You are dancing, dancing in the devil's shoes

Trampling on the Lord's taboos

Kickin' up a mess of blues

Better look at yourselves!

You're dancing

The dancers gotta pay their dues

Folks, your souls are yours to lose

And soon you're gonna have to choose

So, choose!

Keep ritzin', or step it on back to the Lord

Don't pay my brother no mind!

I'm only tellin' 'em what they know was true

I mean, look at you, Ornella!

Me?

Just what would Daddy say?

Who cares?

And you think I've lost my way?

Just take a look at the line you're preaching

Look how you're putting on airs

Well, I don't know who you think you're reaching

Let's face it, nobody cares

You think you're really walking with Jesus, bro?

Sashaying down a carpet of prayer?

Well, whatever's up your butt, it sure makes you strut

But brother, it ain't Jesus who put it there

You're dancing, dancing in the Devil's shoes

Tripping on an ego boost

Minding people's Ps and Qs

Better look at yourself!

You're dancing

And dancers gotta pay their dues

God won't take no IOUs

Soon you're gonna have to choose

So, choose!

Keep ritzing, or step it on back to the Lord!

In your hearts, you know you've lost your way

Just think about what I'm saying when you're working that revival tonight

That is enough, Isaiah

Now these people have been good to me

And I need you to show them some respect

Can you do that for me?

Oh, I can show them respect, Mama

But what about the people that are coming tonight?

Who's respecting them?

You need a new step (keep dancin')

You ought to try a new step

Keep dancin'

Why don't you try a new step?

Keep dancing

You've got to try a new step

Keep dancin'!

Keep your hands a-clappin' (keep dancing!)

Get up on your feet

Nothing's gonna happen (keep dancing)

Sitting in your seats

Keep your toes a-tapping, tip-tapping to the beat

Why don't you throw your hat, keep dancing (you've got to do it)

C'mon, c'mon, c'mon now, dancing (you've got to do it, boy)

It's gonna happen (keep dancing)

C'mon, c'mon, c'mon now, don't try to fight it (keep dancing)

C'mon, c'mon, c'mon now

Give yourself over

Give yourself over

Give yourself, give yourself, oh

Oh, dancing (dancing, yeah yeah)

Keep dancing (yeah, oh yeah)

C'mon c'mon c'mon now

Reach into your pockets

Keep dancing (c'mon c'mon c'mon now)

Reach into your pockets

Now now, give yourself over

Give yourself over

Give yourself, give yourself over

Yeah yeah yeah
