Lyrics
Ballin' The Jack
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
First you put your two knees close up tight
Then you sway to to left, then you sway to the right
Step around the floor, kind of nice and light
You twist around and twist around with all your might
Stretch your lovin' arms straight out in space
Then you do the eagle rock with style and grace
Swing your foot way 'round and bring 'em back
That's what I call, "Ballin' the Jack"
First you put your two knees close up tight
Then you sway to the left, then you sway to the right
Step around the floor, kind of nice and light
You twist around and twist around with all your might
Stretch your lovin' arms straight out in space
Then you do the eagle rock with style and grace
Swing your foot way 'round and bring 'em back
That's what I call, "Ballin' the Jack"
