Now, when the first dance starts it ignites her flame
Puttin the younger dancers to shame
Don’t ask for her heart it’s out on loan
She’s starting out from the top age unknown
Well, she twirls on her heels as she tweaks her skirt
Never too late for a wink and a flirt
Her hair is down though her kids are grown
She’s starting out from the top age unknown
Well she’s got no fixed address – no set time
No nervous alarm goin’ off at nine
No pressing need to please someone else
Sweep aside the photos on that ol’ mantle shelf
Well, she spent all her younger days in care
Sharing all that was hers to share
Now she’s time on her hands to call her own
She’s starting out from the top age unknown
(yodel break)
Gotta love her Gotta love her Gotta love her
Gotta love her Gotta love her Gotta love her – hey
Gotta love her Gotta love her Gotta love her
Gotta love her Gotta love her Gotta love her
Well, she’s slipped the reins of her menial toil
She’s found joy even love can’t spoil
No longer a slave in the comfort zone
She’s starting out from the top age unknown
Well she’s got no fixed address – no set time
Don’t have to be home and in bed by nine
No pressing need to be someone else
Sweep aside the photos on that ol’ mantle shelf
Instra verse + Gotta Love her part
Now she flashes her eyes her smile shines through
Fresh love in her blood – it all seems new
New people to meet new skills to hone
She’s starting out from the top age unknown
(yodel break) + tag + She’s starting out from the top age unknown
