Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Dancing to the Beat of a Broken Heart Lyrics

Some times she'll have one drink too many
Some times she laughs a bit too loud
She's the first one on the dance floor
She'll dance with any man around
I watch the way they all surround her
I know that they don't understand her

[Chorus]
She's just dancin' to the beat of a broken heart
Searchin' for comfort with strangers in the dark
It's just her way to fight another lonely night
Dancing to the beat of a broken heart

She's the center of attention
Every time she comes in here
And as she dances by my table
I see the traces of the tears
There's someone somewhere she's not over
She's just looking for a shoulder

[Chorus]

Dancing to the beat of a broken heart
Dancing to the beat of a broken heart
She's dancing to the beat of a broken heart

Mm mm
Oh oh
