Oklahoma Backroom Dancer

Michael Martin Murphey

She's always appearing with a band of renown
You want to go and see her when you're feeling down
She's a breathtaking spectacle with guaranteed hope
She'll make you feel good 'cause she's the best thing sincesoap
She'll greet you in the alley with a fortified smile
She's the original sideshow and she's got her own style

Pardon my baby, she got to have her fun
Yes, I say, pardon my baby, she got to have her fun
'Cause she's the Oklahoma backroom dancer, watch her run

Now, she dances on air just like Superman's child
Like a field of sheep grazing, she's wild but she's mild
She's more fun than Colorado and more farout than Maine
She comes on like thunder and she's more right than rain
She's the mother of earth and the goddess of thirst
She's the chicken and the egg and whichever came first

Pardon my baby, she got to have a chance
Oh, I say, pardon my baby, she got to have a chance
'Cause she's the Oklahoma backroom dancer, watch her dance
Whoo...

Yeah, I say pardon my baby, she got to have her fun
Yeah, I say pardon my baby, she got to have her fun
Yes, she's the Oklahoma backroom dancer, watch her run
Whoo, my, my
