Born To Sing A Dancin' Song

Jerry Jeff Walker · Five Years Gone [1995]

Everywhere I go I hear the music in the streets

People pass me by, I hear the tappin' of their feet

I could get down, boys, with all that keeps goin' wrong

But I was born to sing me a dancin' song



I'm between these lines, I see the sadness in your eyes

And as I'm lookin' inside, they're sayin', "Please don't cha pass me by"

You know that I care for you, know everything I should

So I start by takin' it where it's good



So everywhere I go I hear this musical beat

Little children pass by, I hear their laughter fill the street

Should be sad, boys, good with what's goin' down

But I was born to sing me a dancin'



Born to sing a dancin' song
