Monday mornin' it's time to get up
Two cups of coffee and she runs for the bus
Looks in the window and fixes her hair
Nobody notices and nobody caresShe admits it ain't no kinda life
Workin' nine to five, you knowShe's only happy when she's dancin'
There ain't no place she'd rather be
When she's dancin'
Just her heart and her soul and her fantasiesWhen Friday evenin' finally rolls around
She grabs a taxi and she heads uptown
Goes to a place they call "The Ball And Chain"
Nothin' matters until Monday so she goes insaneWell, it's a bitch tryin' to make ends meet
But that's the way the story goes
She's only happy when she's dancin'
There ain't nothin' makes her feel so free
When she's dancin'
The girl's outrageous and it's plain to seeShe ain't got much but she got independence
Yeah, she's doin' alright
His eyes are on her as the evenin's endin'
But she ain't goin' for no mystery
'Cause nobody rides for freeShe's only happy when she's dancin'
Come on and dance, babe
Dancin' there ain't no place she'd rather be
When she's dancin'
Just her heart and her soul and her fantasies dance (dancin') yeah
(Dancin') she's only happy
(Dancin') come on
