The Dancer

I left my baby

Just the other night

She said something

And it led to a fight



Begged and I pleaded

Just for one more chance

So she told she'd be

At the Saturday dance



Came into the dance

And the lights were dim

Then I saw to my surprise

That you were dancing with him



I walked up to ask you

If you thought it was right

But before you could answer

He had started a fight



(CHORUS)

Run, tell the people

I'm being hurt

I could fight him alone

But can't you see

His friends are too much for me

Run, tell the people

I'm nearly dead

If you do what I ask

I'll know you're mine

You didn't mean the things

That you said



I couldn't believe what

Was happening to me

Cause there was people all around

And I couldn't get free



I punched and I kicked

I tried as hard as I could

But his friends made sure

It didn't do me no good



I knew by now

I couldn't carry on

I looked all around

And saw that you had gone



I hoped and I prayed

That you'd forgotten him

That you'd realize

The trouble I'm in



(CHORUS) 3X to fade
