Her Little Man

Alone in the kitchen
Blue paint on her cheek
Everything's ready to go
Yeah, it's a boy, he's due next week
She's excited, her heart's all aglow
She turns on the radio

And she dances with her little man
Spinning around, belly in hand
'Cause she knows they'll come a day
Where some lucky girl will dance her place
She holds on as long as she can to her little man

She held that baby so tight in her arms
One day she blinks he was grown
Those first steps together, they filled up her heart
As he heads off to his senior prom
She says, "How about a dance with mom?"

And she dances with her little man
Spinning around, hand-in-hand
'Cause she knows that they'll come a day
Where some lucky girl will dance in her place
She holds on as long as she can to her little man

The vows are exchanged, and the rings are in place
And her baby boy is dancing away
Then he walks over, wipes a tear from her eye
Says that there's still one girl
I haven't danced with tonight

And she dances with her little man
Spinning around hand-in-hand
'Cause she knows today is the day
That lucky woman will dance in her place
She holds on as long as she can
To the memory of every dance with her little man
