Ballroom Dancing

(Paul McCartney)
(4:36)

Well I used to smile when I was a pup
Sailing down the Nile in china cup
With the recipe for a lovely day
Sticking out my back pocket

But it wasn't always such a pretty sight
We used to fight like cats and dogs
Till me made it up in the ballroom

Ballroom dancing made a man of me
One, two, three, four
I just plain adore your
Ballroom dancing, seen it on TV
I got what I got from ballroom dancing
Big B.D.

Well I used to fly when I was a kid
And I didn't cry if it hurt a bit
An a carpet ride to a foreign land
At the time of Davy Crockett

But it wasn't always such a pretty sight
'Cause we used to fight like cats and dogs
Till me made it up in the ballroom

Ballroom dancing made a man of me
One, two, three, four
I just plain adore your
Ballroom dancing, seen it on TV
I got quite a lot from ballroom dancing
Big B.D.

Well the kids have flown to a better life
Now the boy's a man and the girl's his wife
And the summertime never seems to last
When you're riding on a rocket

But it wasn't always such a pretty sight
We used to fight like cats and dogs
Till me made it up in the ballroom

Ballroom dancing made a man of me
One and two and three and four
I just plain adore your
Ballroom dancing, seen it on TV
I got quite a lot from ballroom dancing
Big B.D.
