Gov't Mule Ballerina Lyrics

Ballerina
(Van Morrison)

Spread your wings
Come on fly
Straight to my arms
Oh little angel child
You know you only
Lonely twenty-two story block
And if somebody, not just anybody
Wanted to get close to you
For instance, me baby
All you gotta do
Is ring a bell
Step right up, step right up
And step right up
Just like a ballerina

Crowd will catch you
Sigh it, try it, come on and fly it

I may be wrong
Oh but something in my heart tells me I don't think so
The writing is on the wall
When you came up to me
Child, you was headed for a fall

But if it gets to you
And you feel like you can't go on, on
All you gotta do
Is ring a bell
Step right up, step right up
And step right up
Just like a ballerina

Crowd will catch you
Try it, sigh it yeah, come on and fly it

It's getting late
And its time, its time to slip into your slumber
The light is on the left side of your head
And I'm standing in your doorway
Mumbling, I can't remember the last thing that went through my head
Here come the man, here come the man, and he say, he say that your show must go on and on and on
All you gotta do
Is ring the bell
And step right up, and step right up
And step right up
Just like a ballerina

Crowd will catch you
Sigh it, try it, come on and fly it
Oh come on try it

Crowd will catch you
Sigh it, try it, fly and die it

Oh
Crowd will catch you
Sigh it, try it, fly it come on, come on and die it

Crowd will catch you
Sigh it, try it, come on and fly it
