lyrics

Makes us dance and rolls our blues away
music & lyrics by don boland

Down by the city lights
Under the moon lit night
people gather round
swinging with the latin sound
Balladeers play tan-tan-tan
skillful souls with magic hands
Music is their way
they dream and hope for brighter days

Rhythms never cease to rhyme
with melodies that alter time
makes us dance and rolls our blues away

In their world they improvise
with phrases tinged like butterflies
Back and forth they share
the magic seems to lifts our cares
As the day begins to light
the minstrel teams bid all good night
wishful they humbly say
please come again and hear us play

Rhythms never cease to rhyme
with melodies that alter time
makes us dance and rolls our blues away

Now when I see the lights
Under the moon lit night
I wonder who gathers round
to swing the latin sounds
Some times I hear those drums
and in my heart I miss the fun
Music is my way
I dream and hope for brighter days

Rhythms never cease to rhyme
with melodies that alter time
makes us dance and rolls our blues away
