Martha Graham

The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
She was a smart girl, young girl Loved to dance In fact she did it every time she got the chance She learned the moves, like a list of rules Studied ballet when she went to school She could perrouette, balance She could Jump and spin and battement glisse But her soul felt lost heart was locked Like she was dancing inside of someone else's box So she arched her back, fell to the floor Cause that's what expressed the emotion more Sometime you gotta draw outside of the lines To color the dance that's inside your mind You've gotta dance like Martha Dance like Martha Dance like Martha Dance And then the day came, Martha started a school She taught the dancers how to dance beyond the rules World War 2, the Great Depression All could play a part in her imagination All the costumes and all the props Were just another way to make the audience's heart stop These actors, dancers were part of a play And Martha danced so you could feel the day All the heartache all the joy Expressed in the moves of these girls and boys If you could dance your fear would you take the chance? 'Cause that's how Martha chose to dance
