In that great big fancy ballroom When few dancers dance at three There are two transparent shadows On the floor you barely see They are moving to the music Where two spirits love to touch In that scene they come together Just like when they had so much
Old ghosts still love to dance when life is gone They don't let it die...They rock right on They just cannot seem to stop There's country, blues, a little be bop Ghosts still love to dance when life is gone
They want to stay till break of dawn But the cemetery beckons They rush back home to weathered stones And fill two crypts in seconds Just an ancient ritual... Never hurt the town at all And when mortals bring the music They just go and have a ball
