Ballroom Dancing lyrics
by Paul McCartney



Well I used to smile when I was a pup

Sailing down the Nile in China cup

With the recipe for a lovely day

Sticking out my back pocket

But it wasn't always such a pretty sight

'Cos we used to fight like cats and dogs

Till me made it up in the ballroom



Ballroom dancing made a man of me

One, two, three, four

I just plain adore your

Ballroom dancing, seen it on tv

I got what I got from ballroom dancing

Big b.d.



Well I used to fly when I was a kid

And I didn't cry if it hurt a bit

An a carpet ride to a foreign land

At the time of Davy Crockett



But it wasn't always such a pretty sight

'Cos we used to fight like cats and dogs

Till we made it up in the ballroom



Ballroom dancing made a man of me

One, two, three, four

I just plain adore your

Ballroom dancing, seen it on tv

I got quite a lot from ballroom dancing

Big b.d.



Well went so fast and we all grew up

Now the days that passed in the China cup

Are the memories of another day

And I wouldn't want to knock it



But it wasn't always such a pretty sight

'Cos we used to fight like cats and dogs

Till we made it up in the ballroom



Ballroom dancing made a man of me

One, two, three, four

I just plain adore your

Ballroom dancing, seen it on tv

I got quite a lot from ballroom dancing

Big b.d.



Oh...
