Dancin' Days

Guy Clark · Other Songs - Guy Clark

Some of her dancin' days are over

Some of her dancin' days are done

But she's still got a couple of two steps

That she ain't shown no one



Time will tell if she needs you

Time will tell if she don't

And what'll you do if she believes you

What'll you do if she won't



You can't fence her in with wire

You can't fence her in with words

Bet your life she's on fire

She's got a pistol in her purse



Don't sell her short if she leaves you

Don't sell her short if she stays

'Cause she's got cards up her sleeve still

That she never got to play



It ain't like she's trying to lose you

She's just thinking for herself

She said come on if it moves you

Don't just stay there by yourself



You can't fence her in with wire

You can't fence her in with words

Bet your life she's on fire

She's got a pistol in her purse



You can't fence her in with wire

You can't fence her in with words

Bet your life she's on fire

She's got a pistol in her purse



Some of her dancin' days are over

Some of her dancin' days are done
