Dancing Queen
Christian Lee Hutson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can dance, you can jive
Having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene
Digging the dancing queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for a place to go
Where they play the right music
Getting in the swing
You come to look for a king
Anyone could be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
Little bit of rock music, everything is fine
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance

You are the dancing queen
Young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing queen
Feel the beat from the tambourine, oh, yeah
You can dance, you can jive
Having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene
Digging the dancing queen

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave 'em burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do
You're in the mood for a dance
Anyone could be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
Little bit of rock music, everything is fine
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance

You are the dancing queen
Young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing queen
Feel the beat from the tambourine, oh yeah
You can dance, you can jive
Having the time of your life




See that girl, watch that scene
Digging the dancing queen
