You've got to walk a tightrope baby, but either way you're gonna fall
You've got to walk a tightrope baby, but either way you're gonna fall
And there ain't no net there to catch you, you're gonna lose it all
You got a pretty little angel, she's your lover and she's your wife
You got a pretty little angel, she's your lover and she's your life
But you're sleepin' with the devil almost every night
The smell of her perfume drives you insane
How could such good lovin' cause you so much pain
