Patty Medina - Going Dancing lyrics

Mother can I borrow the car tonight I'm going dancing Joey says her mother says that it's alright If we go dancing I will be home by twelve-thirty I won't get my new dress dirty I just want to dance with him Tonight I saved a little money and my chores are done I'm going dancing The gang is gonna be there and we'll have some fun While we're dancing There's a new boy in our school And he don't see me like you do And I'm gonna dance with him Tonight 'Cause when I'm dancing on the floor It's like I don't live here anymore And the dreams of who I want to be take flight In the company of a stranger I see myself in a new light And I'm going to dance with him Tonight (instrumental) My bangs are short and my slip's too long But I'm going dancing For just one night I want to feel like I belong While I'm dancing 'Cause I have searched throughout this town And there's no poetry to be found So I need to dance with him Tonight 'Cause when I'm dancing on the floor It's like I don't live here anymore And the dreams of who I want to be take flight In the company of a stranger I see myself in a new light And I'm gonna dance with him Tonight In the company of a stranger I see myself in a new light And I'm gonna dance with him Tonight I'm going dancing I'm going dancing Tonight
