Dancin' For The Groceries Lyrics - Kenny Chesney

1 She's thinking about what her kids are doing

2 Five miles away, it's almost time for bed

3 they're brushing teeth and hearing one more story

4 and in the mirror she paints her lips bright red

5 she wishes she could call and say she loves them

6 but the bossman says no calls go out or in

7 so she puts on a dress that might feel pretty

8 if she didnt have to take it off again

9 She's dancin for the Groceries

10 She's dancin for the rent

11 she's dancing for the credit cards

12 that she's already spent

13 in sequence and in laces

14 She's dancing for the braces

15 So her kids can a perfect smile someday

16 Smiling While she dances

17 is the price she has to pay

18 They tell her in this job there is no future

19 So get it while you can Cause looks dont last

20 There money in those pockets for the take in

21 If u do it right it makes the time go fast

22 The music loud the drinks are mostly water

23 What her name is tonight she cant recall

24 the business men stair at the single mother

25 Whose smiling while she's stairing at the wall

26 She's dancin for the Groceries

27 She's dancin for the rent

28 she's dancing for the credit cards

29 that she's already spent

30 in sequence and in laces

31 She's dancing for the braces

32 So her kids can a perfect smile someday

33 Smiling While she dances

34 is the price she has to pay

35 Someday she'll have a house out in the country

36 Someday she'll see the other side of dawn

37 and noone will ever know

38 but it wats she did before

39 she just heard the dj say your on

40 The lights come up

41 and they play her song
