This is my transcription of a recording by Mustang Sally and the Hamjos. I like the wording better than what's in the DT transcription. The album title is Road Trip. It's available on Spotify.

DIDN'T I DANCE
(Lori Holland)

Grandmother heard him, His song was so sweet.
She danced to the fiddler On little bare feet.
She was fifteen and fair, With black braided hair,
And didn't she dance in her day!
Over the years I remember she said,
One night as she kissed me and put me to bed,
"When I was a maid, and my song was played,
Didn't I dance in my day!"

    CHORUS:(repeats 2x each time)
    Didn't I dance, didn't I dance,
    Didn't I dance in my day!

Mother, she danced In a long silken gown,
Hair done in curls, The belle of the town.
There was many a man Who asked for her hand,
And didn't she dance in her day!
Now when she dances, just once in a while,
She says, "I remember those times, and I smile
When I think of the nights my feet danced so light,
Didn't I dance in my day!"
CHORUS

See the young girls On a soft summer's night
Silhouettes slender Against the moon's light;
Hair flowing free, Once that was me,
Oh, didn't I dance in my day!
Now that I'm older, there's one thing I know:
I'll go on dancing though the tempo be slow;
And I know that one day to my grandchild I'll say,
"Didn't I dance in my day!"
CHORUS
