Oklahoma Backroom Dancer

By michael nesmith



She's always appearing with a band of renown

You want to go and see her when you're feeling down

She's a breathtaking spectacle, with guaranteed hope

She'll make you feel good, 'cause she's the best thing since soap

She'll greet you in the alley with a .45 smile	    [or fortified smile]

She's the original sideshow and she's got her own style.



Pardon my baby, she got to have her fun

Yes, i say, pardon my baby, she got to have her fun

'cause she's a oklahoma backroom dancer, watch her run.



Now, she dances on air just like superman's child

Like a [???]  she's wild but she's mild

She's more fun than colorado, and more far-out than maine

She comes on like thunder and she's more right than rain

She's the mother of earth, and the goddess of [???]

She's the chicken and the egg and whichever came first.



Pardon my baby, she got to have her chance

Oh, i say pardon my baby, she got to have her chance.

'cause she's a oklahoma backroom dancer, watch her dance.



Yeah, i say pardon my baby, she got to have her fun

Yeah, i say pardon my baby, she got to have her fun

Yes, she's a oklahoma backroom dancer, watch her run.



Woooo!  my, my!
