Pete Johns - Six and Eight Lyrics




Mother told me
Son you'd better dance
While you've got the chance
And half the talent

But I would rather
Sit and play with toys
And hang out with the boys
And start some trouble

So she dragged me away
All the while trying to say
Son there'll be time for all that, you better start dancing

Time after time we are standing in line and we're
Making the most of each rhyme
I'm happy to see that you're waltzing with me and we're
Dancing in six and eight time

Now I found a reason I should dance
And there would be romance around the corner
Ten years later we would be as one
A different kind of fun but one that's lasting
Work and mortgage and kids
Wouldn't change it for quids
Only wish there was more time, to go dancing

Time after time we are standing in line and we're
Making the most of each rhyme
I'm happy to see that you're waltzing with me and we're
Dancing in six and eight time

Now we're older time is moving on
Like a distant song you don't remember
But I know one thing that will never fade
The memories we made will last forever
And my mother was right
And to my delight
Now I can pass on her words to the next generation

Time after time we are standing in line and we're
Making the most of each rhyme
I'm happy to see that you're waltzing with me and we're
Dancing in six and eight time

Time after time we are standing in line and we're
Making the most of each rhyme
I'm happy to see that you're waltzing with me and we're
Dancing in six and eight time

Yes, we're dancing in six and eight time
We're dancing in six and eight time
We're dancing in six and eight time
We're dancing in six and eight time
