She was born in September of '69
And the summer
of lovers ended that night
So since day one
she was in over drive
Always looking
for lovin' she couldn't find
Every preacher told her she's a sinner
'Cause she moved
ahead of her time
While taking her mama's money
claiming it'd save her life
Baby was a dancer
Two step her way to Heaven
Baby was a dancer
She was born to be a legеnd
Baby, baby was a dancer (Woo)
Baby, baby was a dancer (Woo)
She studiеd the classics
like Balanchine
And moved
to the future like Billie Jean
A certified trophy, a disco queen
A high kicking hustler on the streets
Every teacher told her
she won’t make it
'Cause she moved ahead of her time
While taking his mama's money
tryna save his life
Baby was a dancer
Two step her way to Heaven
Baby was a dancer
She was born to be a legend
Baby, baby was a dancer (Woo)
Baby, baby was a dancer (Woo)
She was prepared for a life
that would never be easy
But no one could stop her
from dancing all over the ceiling (Woo)
Baby was a dancer
Two step her way to Heaven
Baby was a dancer
She was born to be a legend
Baby, baby was a dancer (Woo)
Baby, baby was a dancer (Woo)
Baby, baby was a dancer (Woo)
Baby, baby was a dancer (Woo)
