I was cruising around in my boat one day
When I saw something splashing out in the bay
Something was dancing on the ocean swells
I could see from far away that she danced very well
As I got up close, she gave me a grin
And said, you wanna dance with me, you gotta jump right in!

She slides to the left
She slides to the right
Bobbin’ up and down
Now she’s feeling all right

She wiggles to the left
She wiggles to the right
She flips up in the air – wow!
What a sight!
The dolphin has the craziest moves
I just had to learn those ocean grooves
Doing the dolphin dance
Come on everybody
We’re doing the dolphin dance

She just loves to twirl and twist around
I couldn’t believe what I had found
She was glistening bright in the warm sunlight
She danced ‘til the sun set into night
When it was time to go, I gave her a wave
And said, I’ll tell everyone about your dancin’ ways!

She slides to the left
She slides to the right
Bobbin’ up and down
Now she’s feeling all right
