Dancers In The Mansion
Her hair was black as Sunday, her lips red as gold
She said, “Boy, don’t believe a damn thing you’re told”
She slid across the ballroom with a tulip in her hair
With a nod and a wink I followed her upstairs
She looked me up and down with an 8-track in her hand
She said, “Don’t worry, honey, it ain’t so bad”
She waved her wand and it was gone, much to my surprise
Next thing I knew, the sun began to rise
Dancin’ with the dancers in the mansion
Talkin’ politics and high fashion
Wondrin’ when we gonna get us some of that action
With the dancers in the mansion tonight
The dancers in the mansion, that’s right
This dude from Memphis showed up and moonwalked his way in
His golden grin said he was carryin’
He laid it down in Music Town with craft and artistry
He said, “That’s how we get down in Tennessee”
Dancin’ with the dancers in the mansion
Talkin’ politics and high fashion
Wondrin’ when we gonna get us some of that action
With the dancers in the mansion tonight
The dancers in the mansion, that’s right
Woke up with no idea what the hell went down
When a blue-eyed girl with a Jheri Curl came around
She said, “That’s it, but don’t you fret, I got a number to call”
All for one and a little bit more for all
Dancin’ with the dancers in the mansion
Talkin’ politics and high fashion
Wondrin’ when we gonna get us some of that action
With the dancers in the mansion tonight
The dancers in the mansion, that’s right
