"Dancing Nancies" lyrics - DAVE MATTHEWS BAND

Don't you ever wonder
Maybe if things had been slightly different
You could be somebody else
Don't you wonder maybe
If you took a left turn
Instead of taking a right
You could be somebody different

Could I have been
A parking lot attendant
Could I have been
A millionaire in Bel Air
Could I have been Lost somewhere at Red Rocks
Could I have been
Your little brother
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone other than me
Could I have been
Anyone

He stands touch his hair his shoes untied
Tongue gaping stare
Could I have been a magnet for money?
Could I have been anyone other than me?

Twenty three and so tired of life
Such a shame to throw it all away
The images grow darker still
Could I have been anyone other than me? And then I

Look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide, lick and taste
What's the use in worrying?
What's the use in hurrying?
Turn, turn we almost become dizzy

I am who I am who I am
Well, who am I?
Requesting some enlightenment
Could I have been anyone other than me?

And then I
Sing and dance, I'll play for you tonight
The thrill of it all
Dark clouds may hang on me sometimes
But I'll work it out, and then I

Look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide, lick and taste
What's the use in worrying?
What's the use in hurrying?
Turn, turn we almost become dizzy

Baby

Falling out of a world of lies
Could I have been dancing nancy, oh
Could I have been dancing nancy
Could I have been anyone other than me?

And then I'll sing and dance
La la la hey, la la la hey, la la la
Sing and dance
La la la hey, la la la hey, la la la

I'll play with you tonight
The thrill of it all
Dark clouds may hang on me sometimes
But I'll work it out, and then I

Look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide, lick and taste
What's the use in worrying?
What's the use in hurrying?
Turn, turn we almost become dizzy
Almost become dizzy
