[Verse 1] Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'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 2] Jesus Freaks out in the street Handing tickets out for God Turning back she just laughs The boulevard is not that bad [Verse 3] Piano man he makes his stand In the auditorium Looking on she sings the songs The words she knows the tune she hums [Bridge] But oh how it feels so real Lying here with no one near Only you and you can hear me When I say softly slowly [Chorus] Hold me closer tiny dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen You had a busy day today Hold me closer tiny dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen You had a busy day today [Verse 1 coda] Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'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 [Bridge] But oh how it feels so real Lying here with no one near Only you and you can hear me When I say softly slowly [Chorus] Hold me closer tiny dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen You had a busy day today Hold me closer tiny dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen You had a busy day today
