Dancin` Boy — текст песни (Harry Chapin)

When your daddy plays guitar,
You dance without a smile.
Kid you may not have great rhythm,
But you sure got style.
Just four years old and still it seems,
You`ve got it figured out.
When daddy sings, and then you dance,
The people clap and shout.

Cuz, you`re my dancin` boy,
And it`s so scary how you trust me.
Just one look from you,
And I come pouring out like wine.
Dancin` boy, I`m sure by now that you must see,
You`re dancin` means much more to me,
Than any dream of mine.

Yes, I`m so proud when you are with me,
That my heart digs in my throat.
And when you stop to strut your stuff,
My eyes go all afloat.
And when I have to leave you home
As sometimes it must be.
I feel that with my leaving
I leave far too much of me.

Yes, you`re my dancin` boy,
And it`s scary how you trust me.
Just one look from you,
And I come pouring out like wine.
You`re my dancin` boy,
I`m sure by now that you must see,
You`re dancin` means much more to me,
Than any dream of mine.

You know the time will come my dancin` boy
When you`re dancin` days are done,
And when daddy and his dancin` boy
Will have dwindled down to one.

You know the world will`ve taught you other steps
To match the march of time,
So you`ll have to keep our dancin` days
Dancin` in your mind.

Yes, do your dancin` , boy,
Cuz it`s so scary how you trust me.
Just one look from you,
And I come pouring out like wine.
Do your dancin` , boy.
I`m sure by now that you must see
You`re dancin` means much more to me,
Than any dream of mine.
