Lyrics
DANCIN' WITH DIANE
lyrics and music by Patrick W. Carr
She said, Hon, don't have too much fun
While I'm not around to keep an eye on you
And don't be going out drinking, or messing with no girls
And come home dragging like you always do
I said, Hon, I won't get in no trouble
And I won't come home in a mess
But there's one little thing that's on my mind
I think I'd better confess
(chorus):
I was DANCING WITH DIANE
I was DANCING WITH DIANE
I was DANCING WITH DIANE, but I was thinking about you
(bridge):
I was doing fine 'til I ran into her
And fell in love all over again
Her pretty eyes, the way they smiled at me
There's just no way I could win
But I didn't do nothing, Honey
Nothing that I wouldn't tell
And I was thinking about you
But the smell of her perfume still hung in the room
(inst. verse)
(repeat chorus)
I said, Hon, I had a whole lot of fun
I met up with some long time friends
I was having such a good time
I didn't want it to end
Diane said, Babe, please don't go home to Mama
you can stay a while with me, I guess
I came on home, but, oh, there's one little thing
I think I'd better confess
(repeat chorus)
(outro):
Dancing, we were dancing
Dancing, we were dancing
And she smelled so sweet
And she held me so close
DANCING WITH DIANE
DANCING WITH DIANE
I was DANCING WITH DIANE
I was DANCING WITH DIANE
I was DANCING WITH DIANE, but I was thinking about you
Honey, I was thinking about you the whole time
