Send "Dance" Ringtone to Cell Phone

My name is Mary and I'm from Greenville, Mississippi 
And this is where I live here in this old folks' dormitory 
Every Sunday night Sarah comes to see us 
And she plays that old upright 
But Sarah always seems to leave us 

When she plays something comes over me 
Goes from my head all the way to my feet 

{Chorus}
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 wanna dance 
I wanna wrap my arms around your neck and dance 
I wanna listen to the music that's been ringing 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 dying 
They're all dying for a change 
I know I'm dying 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 

{Chorus}

I'd marry you, if you could dance, that's what I said 
'Cause where I'm going there'll be dancing everyday

And 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 ringing in my ears
'Cause one day I'm gonna dance right outta here

One day I'm gonna dance right outta here

Mmhmm, one day I'm gonna dance right outta here

I'm gonna dance

One day I'm gonna dance right outta here (2x)
