Mark Heard - Dancing At The Policeman's Ball (Live) lyrics

You hit the floor at the sound of the band With a partner in your hand Restless and breathless you dance the night away Did I hear you say it is your aim For every night to be just the same And you hope the city outside's gonna be okay Dancing at the Policeman's ball Dancing at the Policeman's ball Move your feet while the city sleeps Dancing at the Policeman's ball I saw you smile when I heard you say "A life o' crime just does not pay, And criminals are heading for a big fall!" And when I asked to see your badge You said, "Man, I don't need to flash no badge- Can't you see I'm dancing at the Policeman's ball?" Dancing at the Policeman's ball Dancing at the Policeman's ball Move your feet while the city sleeps Dancing at the Policeman's ball In precinct five, ten people died In precinct six, it was twenty-five Nobody taking the law to the streets tonight Did I hear you say it is your aim For every night to be just the same And you hope the city outside's gonna be okay Dancing at the Policeman's ball Dancing at the Policeman's ball Move your feet while the city sleeps Dancing at the Policeman's ball
