Dezzie was a kid who never had a dime
She worked for hours juggling down on the borderline
She never knew her Dad, never cared to find
Just had a vision of herself living a different life
Dezzie never had a place to run away
She thought she'd find herself a home out in the U.S.A
A citizen with fire, a little girl with game
But just a week in California she'd grown afraid
I said hold on Dezzie
Taper to the bone
Fake yourself lucky
And hope until you're home
Hold on Dezzie
Find yourself the love
Dance like no one's watching
And know that you're enough
Dezzie got a job being a diner dame
And at night she danced for dollars down the walk of shame
She slapped a lot of hands but it was worth the pay
In seven years she had the money for another way
So Dezzie bought out a little pub
Turned it into a salsa club
Oh now she's living life the way it ought to be
But something made her toss and turn when she's asleep
Oh I said hold on Dezzie
Taper to the bone
Fake yourself lucky
And hope until you're home
Hold on Dezzie
Find yourself the love
Dance like no one's watching
And know that you're enough, oh you're enough
(Piano Tickle Time)
Dezzie you don't need to run away
Find a lover who will always stay
Open your home and rescue a soul
This dog just may throw you a bone
Hold on Dezzie
Taper to the bone
Fake yourself lucky
And hope until you're home
Hold on Dezzie
Find yourself the love
Dance like no one's watching
And know, know, know that you're enough
Oh you're enough
Dezzie you're enough
Oh you're enough
