I go walking down a dead end street,
Talking about things that don't mean a thing,
I got a girl and a lady
And I found her waiting at the bottom of this whiskey bottle,
Looking so damn fine,
Like a catcher in the rye with no alibi.
You can take me so far down,
Take me higher baby,
I go dancin', dancin', dancin'
With black maria
Woo ohh,
Dancing with black maria,
Woo ohh,
Dancing with black maria.
Baby I'm black, i'm blue,
But I ain't pulling no punches
Cause I need you in my blood and soul.
Oh and everyone around the world
Is gonna have a good time baby,
Sweet baby,
Oh you're looking so good like rock n' roll
You can take me so far down,
Take me higher baby,
I go dancin', dancin', dancin'
With black maria
Woo ohh,
Dancing with black maria,
Woo ohh,
Dancing with black maria.
You can take me so far down,
Take me higher baby,
I go dancin', dancin', dancin'
With black maria
Every night, everyday,
I go dancin' dancin' dancin'
With black maria
