Version 1Stop Stop Stop:The Hollies. #2 UK and #7 USA in 1966. #1. D See the girl with cymbals on her fingers, entering through the door. Ruby glistening from her navel, shimmering around the floor. Bells on feet go ting-a ling-a linging, going through my head. Sweat is falling just like tear drops, running from her head. #2. D Now she's dancing, going through the movements, swaying to and fro. Body moving, bringing back a memory, thoughts of long ago. Blood is rushing, temperature is rising, sweating from my brow. Like a snake, her body fascinates me, I can't look away now. CHORUS: G Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, A give me time to breathe. G Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, A Or I'll have to leave. #3. D Now she's moving all around the tables luring all in sight. But I know that she cannot see me, hidden by the light. Closer, closer, she is getting nearer, soon she'll be in reach. As I enter into the spotlight she stands lost for speech. CHORUS: G Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, A give me time to breathe. G Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, A Or I'll have to leave. CHORUS: G Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, A give me time to breathe. G Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, A Or I'll have to leave. #4. D Now I hold her, people are staring, don't know what to think. And we struggle knocking over tables, spilling all the drinks. Can't they understand that I want her, happens every week. Heavy hand upon my collar throws me in the street. CHORUS: G Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, A give me time to breathe. G Stop, stop, stop all the dancing, A D Or I'll have to le.......ave.(Fade.) A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
