Dancers Lyrics

Utah Phillips Dancers

Dancing through the courts
My partner's mad as I
The lady's blind you know
She didn't see me die

She kept on dancing
She kept on dancing
She kept on dancing by

Billie Babbcott's mad
For ten years you all knew
Christ why do you think
I gave myself to you

You keep on dancing
You keep on dancing
You keep on dancing by

A doctor, little pills
You'll measure, take a test
I think ______ where
I'll be beaten by the rest

You keep on dancing
You keep on dancing
You keep on dancing by

Now my pretty dancer
Do you know how it felt
Dancing dancing dancing
At the end of my belt

Dancing through the courts
My partner's mad as I
The lady's blind you know
She didn't see me die

She kept on dancing
She kept on dancing
She kept on dancing by
