The Dancing Queen The Famous Dancer Poem by Francis Duggan

She's almost sixty years and she's still dancing and she is still known as the dancing queen
And she was a champion dancer in her twenties one of the finest dancers ever seen
And still she is a marvel on the dance floor and with dancers half her age she can compete
The passing years may have slowed her a little but there's still years of dancing in her dancing feet.

She has always been a dancer she will tell you, I've been dancing since I was two I've heard her say,
I have such a great love for dancing music and dancing I could never give away,
South American, African and Celtic and I can rock and roll and twist and jive
Music always makes me feel like dancing and makes the soul in me feel so alive.

Almost sixty years but she doesn't look it through her blond hair hardly any gray
She doesn't feel she's getting old and slowing 'I feel old' you never hear her say,
She will still be dancing when she's eighty doing what she thoroughly enjoy
And if per chance there is a life hereafter she will dance in heaven in the sky.

She's the Dancing Queen the famous dancer and she doesn't feel that she's beyond her prime
And she will still be dancing when she's eighty for she is one who won't lay down to time
Dancing is the thing that keeps her happy and she dances with a big smile on her face
And she doesn't feel she's getting old and weary for age in her life doesn't have a place.
