Dakota The Dancing Bear
Kris Kristofferson
From video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ct4V79ODXE8 [Intro] [Verse 1] Midnight touch the black hills westward on the run Crimson clouds to the eastward painted by the setting sun Oh Jesse drove the pickup I slipped to the radio With some good time behind us and some good times ago [Verse 2] Well we pulled into the station for some water and some gasoline I jumped when I heard sweet Jesse From the pump when she let out of scream Oh come here quick I said hon grab your boots and comb your hair Do believe the fellow here’s got an old pet dancin’ bear [Chorus] Dance dance Dakota dance dance until the break of day Me and sweet Jesse ain’t never seen A bear like that dance that well It’s a one step two step three step four A bottle of soda and he’ll dance some more Dance dance Dakota dance dance around the country store [Verse 3] There was set up camp in the pick up And we stayed a better day or two Me and my baby are ramblin’ around We couldn’t think of nothing better to do Jesse blew the mouth harp Dakota done the buck and wing I broke all the strings off my Fender guitar and we began to sing [Chorus] Dance dance Dakota dance dance until the break of day Me and sweet Jesse ain’t never seen A bear like that dance that well It’s a one step two step three step four A bottle of soda and he’ll dance some more Dance dance Dakota dance dance around the country store Dance dance Dakota dance dance around the country store [Outro]
