Take your baby by the hand And make her do a high hand stand And take your baby by the heel And do the next thing that you feel [Chorus] We were so in phase In our dance hall days We were cool on craze When I, you and everyone we knew Could believe, do and share in what was true I said, “Dance hall days love” Take your baby by the hair And pull her close and there there there And take your baby by the ears And play upon her darkest fears [Chorus] I said, “Dance hall days love” Dance hall days Dance hall days love Take your baby by the wrist And in her mouth an amethyst And in her eye two sapphires blue And you need her and she needs you And you need her and she needs you And you need her and she needs you And you need her and she needs you And you need her and she needs you [Chorus] Oh, I said, “Dance hall days love” Dance hall days love Dance hall days Dancehall days love Dance hall days Dance hall days love Dance hall days Dance hall days love
