Dance |
|
Caedmon's Call |
|
My name is Mary |
|
and I'm from Greenville, Mississippi |
|
But this is where I live |
|
here in this old folk's dormitory |
|
Every Sunday night Sarah comes to see us |
|
And she plays that old upright |
|
But Sarah always seems to leave us |
|
Caedmon's Call |
|
When she plays something comes over me |
|
Goes from my head all the way to my feet |
|
And I wanna dance |
|
I wanna snap my fingers all night long and dance |
|
I wanna move around the room |
|
just like a woman in a trance |
|
All night, I wanna dance |
|
I wanna wrap my arms around your neck and dance |
|
I wanna listen to the music |
|
that's been ringing in my ears |
|
one day I'm gotta dance right out off here |
|
I had three girls and a boy |
|
but now one's gone up to Heaven |
|
She's with her papa now 'cause he left for lack of penicillin |
|
The older that I get I figure everyone is dying |
|
They're all dying for a change |
|
I know I'm dying for some action |
|
But days like these Sunday seems so far away |
|
So until then I'm gonna sit right here and here I'll stay |
|
I'd marry you, |
|
if you could dance, that's what I said |
|
Cuz where I'm going they'll be dancing everyday |
