Lyrics John Martyn

John Martyn

Dancing

Oh darling, it's gonna be late when we get back home

Can you wait till we get back home?

We don't go walking and reeling

And rocking 'round the whole round town

Walking and talking 'round the whole round town

Don't go rolling and rocking 'round the whole round town

Let another man take you home

Let another man take you home

Oh darling, I wanted to leave but I had to stay

Boys wouldn't let me run away

Been walking and reeling

And rocking 'round the whole round town

Been walking and talking 'round the whole round town

Been rolling and a-rocking 'round the whole round town

Let the morning bring me home

Let the morning bring me home

Well, this is alright, go out all night

Well, this is alright, you go out all night

I tell you there's been no romancing

There's been no fancypantsing

I've been dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing

Oh darling, I want you to try to understand

If you're leading the life of a music man

You've got to walk around and reel around

And rock around the whole round town

Walk around, talk around the whole round town

Go rolling and rocking out the whole round town

Till the morning takes you home

Till the morning takes you home

Oh darling, it's gonna be late when we get back home

Can you wait till we get back home?

We don't go walking and reeling

And rocking 'round the whole round town

Walking and talking 'round the whole round town

Don't go rolling and rocking 'round the whole round town

Don't let another man take you home

Don't let another man take you home

Well, this is alright, go out all night

Well, this is alright, go out all night

I tell you there's been no romancing

There's been no fancypantsing

There's been life-enhancing, take-a-chancing

Dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing
