Dancing Queen

A-Teens · The ABBA Generation

ooohhh
You can dance, you can Jive,
having the time of your life
oooohhhh
See that girl, watch that scene, digging the Dancing Queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for a place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come to look for a king
Anybody could be that guy
The night is young and the music's high
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine (oh-yea)
You can dance, you can Jive
having the time of your life
Oooohoo See that girl, watch that scene, digging the Dancing Queen

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave them burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine (oh yea)
You can dance, you can Jive
OH havingthe time of your life
ohh ooh ee that girl, watch that scene, digging the Dancing Queen
(repeat once)
