[Verse 1] I had a dream last night That filled me full of fright: I dreamt that I was with the Devil below In his great big fiery hall Where the Devil was giving a ball. I checked my coat and hat And started gazing at The merry crowd that came to witness the show; And I must confess to you. There were many there I knew. [Chorus] At the Devil’s Ball At the Devil’s Ball I saw the cute Missus Devil so pretty and fat Dress’d in a beautiful fireman’s hat; Ephraham the Leader man who led the band last fall He play’d the music at the Devil’s Ball In the Devil’s hall I saw the funniest devil that I ever saw Taking the tickets from folks at the door; I caught a glimpse of my mother-in-law Dancing with the Devil Oh! the little Devil Dancing at the Devil’s Ball. [Verse 2] The Devil’s Pa and Ma Were standing at the bar Conversing with the little fellow who first Put the pain in champagne wine They were pouring it out in a stein I bought a round of ice For ev’rybody twice It wasn’t long before I ordered a fan; And before the break of dawn I put my overcoat in pawn. [Chorus] At the Devil’s Ball At the Devil’s Ball I saw the cute Missus Devil so pretty and fat Dress’d in a beautiful fireman’s hat; Ephraham the Leader man who led the band last fall He play’d the music at the Devil’s Ball In the Devil’s hall I saw the funniest devil that I ever saw Taking the tickets from folks at the door; I caught a glimpse of my mother-in-law Dancing with the Devil Oh! the little Devil Dancing at the Devil’s Ball.
