[Verse 1]
When I first met Belinda
It was down in Corpus Christi
Back in August I believe in '53
She was workin' as a dancer
And her life-size tinted photo
Beckoned tantalizingly from a marquee

[Verse 2]
The red neon was flashin'
Music poured out on the street
And the club, I'm sure, had seen it's better days
And a sea of bleary eyes
And upturned faces watched Belinda
As she danced within the noisy, smoky haze

[Chorus]
You may know my body
But you cannot know my mind
She moved her lips but didn't make a sound
You may know my body
But you cannot know my mind
Then she'd dip and twirl and smile and dancе around

[Verse 3]
Belinda was a beauty
She rеvealed her body slowly
So that all the cowboys strained and craned to see
Her sequined skirts would swirl and twirl
And catch the light and sparkle
And Belinda's eyes would wander restlessly
