[Intro] [Upbeat Honky-Tonk Upright Piano] [Verse 1] She sings from the treetop, day-long beat, Taps a branch rhythm with her tiny feet. All the sparrows on Nineteenth Street, Tune in close for Robin's sweet repeat. [Chorus] Dancin' Robin, Yeah, go on, Dancin' Robin. Sing, Dancin' Robin, keep the good times rollin' on. [Verse 2] Every little bluebird, every hummingbird, All the little birds in the tall walnut tree. The curious sharp-shinned hawk, the big Northern flicker, Move the wings, singin', "Go Robin, go!" [Chorus] Dancin' Robin, Yeah, go on, Dancin' Robin. Sing, Dancin' Robin, keep our good times rollin' on. [Bridge] Then she dips from the branch like a pinball in flight, Red wings flashing over the courthouse light. She zips through the maple tops, low and fast, And the whole yard leans in when she whistles past. Feathers start flappin', the fence row shakes, Every bird in the crowd stomps out, "Run it back!" [Chorus] Dancin' Robin, Yeah, go on, Dancin' Robin. Sing, Dancin' Robin, keep our good times rollin' on. [Refrain] Bobwhite's at the bandstand, all dressed up in his best, Cuttin' boards on the dance floor, puttin' those boots to the test. He yells, "Heel-toe, girl, don't you quit now, lean in!" Two-step, kick, and a slap on the tin. [Verse 1] She dances in the trees all the day long, Hoppin' and a-singin' her beautiful song. All the tiny birds on Nineteenth Street, Love to see her dancein’ and struttin, all day long. [Chorus] Dancin' Robin, Yeah, go on, Dancin' Robin. Sing, Dancin' Robin, keep our good times rollin' on. Dance. [Outro] Dancin' Robin. Go on, swing, Dancin' Robin. Sing, Dancin' Robin, keep it rollin' all night long. Dance. [Upbeat Honky-Tonk Upright Piano]
