lyrics

She’s All Right

She was born upon a summer wind
And she would dance for me, twirl and spin
And her laughter sure did do me in
Along with that her Cheshire grin

She’s all right
As long as she dances she’s all right
She’s got everything she fancies
She’s all right, she’s all right

She captured once my sanity
Then she searched in vain my vanity
And when she returned my eyes could see
She knew myself in spite of me

She’s all right
As long as she dances she’s all right
She’s got everything she fancies
She’s all right, she’s all right

Falling down I took her in my arms
And we did dance at Yasgur’s farm
And all the world was magic charms
Growing up was never our desire
And as the years went by our fire
Did soar like heaven’s golden choir

She died upon a winter’s night
Then the angels sang and gave her flight
And when spring awoke, her spirit came
And I saw her dancing once again

She’s all right
As long as she dances she’s all right
She’s got everything she fancies
She’s all right, she’s all right
