Dancing girl

The room was dark but I could see her there

Her face was lost inside her flowing hair

She was my dancing girl

She was a dancing girl

She danced alone

She was a dancing girl

She took the music with her sweet sashay

The only smile inside a sad café was all that I can see

She was a mystery

Oh, she danced alone

She was a dancing girl

She moved so easy and so unafraid

And every song that they played was like a serenade

Her serenade, her еscapade

Oh, I drank courage and I watched hеr sway

I picked a song to make the jukebox play

It had to be just right

It had to last the night

And she danced alone

She was a dancing girl

Oh-oh

And if I knew it, I could call her name

We'd light the night up like a silver flame

I had to make her see

She belonged to me

I took her hand then she took me on

The conga rhythm, then we danced 'til dawn

Me and my dancing girl

She was my dancing girl

All through the night

She was my dancing girl

Ho!
