I Want To Be A Rockette
Want, want what do I want?
Ever since I was a little girl there's only been one thing I want
I want I want what every little red-blooded girl in America could want
I want I want what I have wanted since the first day I learned how to want
I wanna be a rockette
I wanna dance until dawn
I wanna be a rockette
That's what my heart is set upon
I wanna be a rockette
I wanna hear the crowd roar
I wanna feel the magic when they scream for more and more and more and more and
I never wanted to be somebody's wife
A suburban life seems a pity
I never wanted to be a moviestar
I always wanted to be a dancer at radio city
I wanna be a rockette
And it's no surprise
I wanna be a rockette
Oh how my foot is gonna rise
I wanna be a rockette
It's one thing I know
And when I'm a rockette
I'll never miss one show I'll show 'em I'll show 'em I'll show 'em
I never wanted to be a broadway star
Being famous has too many duties
I never wanted to be a ballet star
I always wanted to be one of those dancing dazzling beauties
I'll always remember
When momma brought me to New York
And I first saw those girls up on that stage
There was magic everywhere
"Look at them momma", I said
"One of these days your little girl's gonna be up there"'
I'm gonna be up there
I'm gonna be a rockette
Let me out on that stage
I'm gonna be a rockette
They are the greatest dancers of our age
I'm gonna be a rockette
I'm gonna hear the crowd scream
I'm gonna know the feeling of getting my dream
And that is my dream, to know how it feels
To be someone who's free to kick up her heels
It's what I was meant to be
You gotta take me
Gotta take me
Gotta take me
Gotta take me
Gotta take me
Me
