Låttexter: Caedmons Call. Dance.

My name is Mary
And I'm from Greenville, Mississippi
Yeah but this is where I live
Here in this old folks' dormitory

And every Sunday night
Sarah comes to see us
And she plays that old upright
But Sarah always seems to leave us

And when she plays
Something comes over me
Goes from my head
All the way to my feet

And I wanna dance
I wanna snap my fingers all night long and dance
I wanna move around the room just like a woman in a trance
All night, I said I wanna dance

I wanna wrap my arms around your neck and dance
I wanna listen to the music that's been ringin' in my ears
'Cause one day I'm gonna dance right outta here

I had three girls and a boy
But now one's gone up to Heaven
She's with her papa now
'Cause he left for lack of penicillin

The older that I get
I figure everyone is dyin'
They're all dyin' for a change
And I know I'm dyin' for some action

But days like these
Sunday seems so far away
So until then I'm gonna sit right here
And here I'll stay

I wanna dance
I wanna snap my fingers all night long and dance
I wanna move around the room just like a woman in a trance
All night, I said I wanna dance

I wanna wrap my arms around your neck and dance
I wanna listen to the music that's been ringin' in my ears
'Cause one day I'm gonna dance right outta here, right outta here

I'd marry you if you could dance that's what I said
'Cause where I'm goin' there'll be dancin' everyday

I'm gonna dance
I'm gonna snap my fingers all night long and dance
I'm gonna move around the room just like a woman in a trance
All night, I'm gonna dance

I'm gonna wrap my arms around your neck and dance
I'm gonna listen to the music that's been ringin' in my ears
'Cause one day I'm gonna dance right outta here

So one day I'm gonna dance right outta here
One day I'm gonna dance right outta here
I'm gonna dance
One day I'm gonna dance right outta here, here, here
One day I'm gonna dance right outta
I'm gonna dance
