Emily’s (Salle de Danse) Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Born in the bayou
And brought up in Santa Fe
I don't know how
But she made it to Saint-Tropez
She's a legend now
[Verse 2]
She bought her a dance hall
And filled it with savoir faire
Bought her a dance hall
And now she's a millionaire
She's a legend now
[Pre-Chorus]
She could really turn the heads of France
Turned them on, then she taught them how to dance
She would serve them rhythm with their wine
Cordon bleu with a touch that's so divine
[Chorus]
Salle de danse, Emily's
Salle de danse
Salle de danse, Emily's
Salle de danse
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 3]
Give her a beat and she'll dance
'Til the break of day
Moves through the night
Like a cheetah to find her prey
She's a legend now (Woah, oh)
[Verse 4]
With fast-movin' eyes
And a body that's movin' slow
She stands by the door
With a smile and a big hello
She's a legend now
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, she could really turn the heads of France
Turned them on then she taught them how to dance
She would serve them rhythm with their wine
Cordon bleu with a touch that's so divine, yeah
[Chorus]
Salle de danse, Emily's
Salle de danse
Salle de danse, Emily's
Salle de danse
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Instrumental Outro]
