Dance Little Lady (From This Year Of Grace) |
Though you’re only seventeen |
Far too much of life you’ve seen |
Syncopated child |
Maybe if you only knew |
Where your path is leading to |
You’d become less wild |
But I know it’s vain |
Trying to explain |
While there’s this insane |
Music in your brain |
Dance, dance, dance little lady |
Youth is fleeting to the rhythm |
Beating in your mind |
Dance, dance, dance little lady |
So obsessed with second best |
No rest you’ll ever find |
Time and tide and trouble |
Never, never wait |
Let the cauldron bubble |
Justify your fate |
Dance, dance, dance little lady |
Dance, dance, dance little lady |
Leave tomorrow behind |
When the saxaphone |
Gives a wicked moan |
Charleston, hey, hey |
Rhythms fall and rise |
Start dancing to the tune |
The bands crooning— |
For soon the night will be gone |
Start swaying like a reed |
Without heeding |
The speed |
That hurries you on |
Syncopate your nerves |
Till your body curves |
Drooping, stooping |
Laughter some day dies |
And when the lights are starting to gutter |
Dawn—through the shutter— |
Shows you’re living in a world of lies |
Dance, dance, dance little lady |
Youth is fleeting to the rhythm |
Beating in your mind |
Dance, dance, dance little lady |
So obsessed with second best |
No rest you’ll ever find |
Time and tide and trouble |
Never, never wait |
Let the cauldron bubble |
Justify your fate |
Dance, dance, dance little lady |
Dance, dance, dance little lady |
Leave tomorrow behind |
