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
