[Chorus]

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, she was a seamstress for the band

Pretty eyed, pirate smile, she'll marry a music man

Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand

And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand


[Verse 1]

Jesus freaks out in the street

Handing tickets out for God

Turning back, she just laughs

The boulevard is not that bad


[Verse 2]

Piano man, he makes his stand

In the auditorium

Looking on, she sings the song

The words she knows, the tune she hums


[Verse 3]

But, oh, how it feels so real

Lying here with no one near

Only you and you can hear me

When I sing softly, slowly


[Chorus]

And hold me closer, tiny dancer

And count the headlights on the highway

And lay me down in sheets of linen

You had a busy day today


[Verse 4]

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, she was a seamstress for the band

Pretty eyed, pirate smile, yeah, she married a music man

Ballerina, you must have seen her, she was dancing in the sand

And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand


[Chorus]

And hold me closer, tiny dancer

And count the headlights on the highway

And lay me down in sheets of linen

You had a busy day today

And hold me closer, tiny dancer

And count the headlights on the highway

And lay me down in sheets of linen

You had a busy day today
