Lewis Merenstein - Ballerina lyrics

Spread your wings, come on fly awhile Straight to my arms, little angel child You know you only Lonely twenty-two story block And if somebody, not just anybody Wanted to get close to you For instance, me, baby All you gotta do is ring a bell Step right up, step right up And step right up, ballerina Crowd will catch you Fly it, sigh it, try it Well, I may be wrong But something deep in my heart Tells me I'm right and I don't think so You know I saw the writing on the wall When you came up to me Child, you were heading for a fall But if it gets to you And you feel like you just can't go on All you gotta do is ring a bell And step right up and step right up And step right up, just like a ballerina Steppin' lightly Alright, well, it's getting late Yes it is, yes it is And this time I forget to slip into your slumber The light is on the left side of your head And I'm standing in your doorway And I'm mumbling and I can't remember The last thing that ran through my head Here come the man, here come the man and he say He say the show must go on So all you gotta do is ring the bell And step right up and step right up And step right up Just like a ballerina, yeah, yeah Crowd will catch you Fly it, sight it, c'mon, die it, yeah, yeah Just like a ballerina Just like a, just like a, just like a, just like a ballerina Get on up, get on up Keep a-moving, a-moving on, a-moving on, a-moving on Little higher, baby You know, you know, you know, you know, you know You know get up baby Alright A-keep on, a-keep on, a-keep on pushing A-keep on, a-keep on pushing stepping lightly A just like a ballerina Ooo-wee babe, take off your shoes Get on just like a ballerina
