I Wish You Could Have Seen Her Dance

Lyrics

She wore a low-cut black satin dress Slit up the front and down the back She wore black high-heeled shoes With laces that went up her ankles She wore black velvet gloves With rhinestone bracelets around them She had long blonde hair (long blonde hair) She had long blonde hair (long blonde hair) And she sat on the jukebox With one leg propped up And a crowd of boys gathered 'round her And one tried to kiss her But she turned her face And I wish you could have seen her dance The way she soared across the floor I wish you could have seen her dance She did a pirouette and then a Kung Fu step I wish you could have seen her dance The way she threw her hair up in the air And I wish you could have seen her dance I asked her, "Do you come here often?" She said, "I've never been here before" I asked her her name and she said "They call me Kim Boston in England" And Kim English in Boston, and also in Dallas" I said, "How did you like Dallas?" She said, "It was just like Ireland Except the wells don't look like wishing wells" And I wish you could have seen her dance The way she soared across the floor I wish you could have seen her dance She did the Flambeau, and the Tango And the Flamenco I wish you could have seen her dance The way she threw her hair up in the air And I wish you could have seen her dance I asked, "Are you an actress?" She said, "No, but do you think I'm good enough?" She said, "You look like you belong on Monty Python ... Eric Idle" She said, "Do you wanna know what I do for work?" I said, "Sure" (she had long blonde hair) I said, "Alright" (she had long blonde hair) She said, "I'm a maid and a dancer I've danced for three rock bands And one of the bands even Wrote a song about me" And I wish you could have seen her dance I wish you could have seen her dance I wish you could have seen her Wish you could have seen her Wish you could have seen her dance
