Story Behind The Song
Funny you should ask....song started out about a dance diva and ended on the spicy side of lap-dancing. Joe researches for the song on the streets of Atlanta when wife is out of town. Sherrie is accused of having danced as a lap dancer after lyric review by fellow songwriter. They had just finished the evolution when the 1st of the HBO series on Dance Divas aired. Too bad HBO already contracted all the songs for the season...

Lyrics
Angelina
© 2000 Joe Estes, Sherrie Davis
Ad lib..to a classical guitar lead
In the arena, Angelina
She's my Spanish dancing queen
Lures men from everywhere to see her
When she dances
And oh, they adore her, as they pay her
For the pleasures that she gives.
Yeah, she's so sexy
When she dances
Climb
Dance for me oh, sweet Angeline
Give me wings into your fantasy
Please, give it up for me, sweet Angelina
Oh, My Angelina, she is a dream come true
And she'll have you thinkin' that it's you she's makin love to
Sometimes I wonder what she thinks of
As she casts her magic spell
And who she dreams of
When she dances ..Angelina
I only know that I must love her
Touch her, feel her, I'd give anything
To make this moment last forever
When she dances (Spanish guitar lead returns)
Dance for me oh, sweet Angeline
Give me wings into your fantasy
Set me free with your exotic groove
And oh my Angelina what I really need to know
I'm the one you're making love to when you're dancing
