Friday at the Dance

Well I've been dancing all my life as long as I remember, My mum would teach us one by one to learn to dance together Well we got no pay and we got no job, we got no money in the bank, But Friday night at the stroke of nine we'd head all to the dance With a one-pound note that I got from my mother and chatting up one girl, I love another Talking about nothing but the change in the weather, That's Friday at the dance With the boys on the left and the girls on the right, And mum there in the middle She asked us if we had no drink and swear it on the Bible, We were staying all night till the Cows came home given half a chance But nothing compares with the people there, That's Friday at the dance With a one-pound note that I got from my mother and chatting up one girl, I love another Talking about nothing but the change in the weather, That's Friday at the dance Well how the time has passed us by from one day to another, If I'd had the chance to start again I'd do the same all over Well we got no Gold and we got no Boat we got no Villa in France, But Friday night at the stroke of nine We still head to the dance With a one-pound note that I got from my mother and chatting up one girl, I love another Talking about nothing but the change in the weather, That's Friday at the dance With the boys on the left and the girls on the right, And mum there in the middle She asked us if we had no drink and swear it on the Bible, Well we got no Gold and we got no Boat we got no Villa in France But Friday night at the stroke of nine, We'll head off to the dance With a one-pound note that I got from my mother and chatting up one girl, I love another Talking about nothing but the change in the weather, That's Friday at the dance
