Take your shoes off
Let your hair down
Time for you to get away
Dont you worry bout tomorrow
Or youre gonna miss today
When the madness gets you crazy
til youre lookin for a place to hide
And youre thinking
That youll never
Get yourself some peace of mind
But, you can do it, you can do it
You can do it to your hearts delight
Oh, you can do it with your imagination
And you can do it in real life
Feel the magic of the moment
Let your spirit carry you away
Get in touch with, oh
All your feelings
Youd better find out what they have to say
Oh, you can do it, you can do it
You can do it to your hearts delight
Oh, you can do with your imagination
And you can do it in real life
Feeling free as an eagle
Flying homeward
High in the sky
Youll touch the fire of love inside you
That youre lookin to find
But, you can do it, you can do it
You can do it to your hearts delight
Oh, you can do it with your imagination
You can do it in real life
You can do it, you can do it
You can do it to your hearts delight
You can do it with your imagination
And you can do, can do, do it, do it
You can do it, you can do it
You can do it to your hearts delight
You can do it with your imagination
And you can do it, can do it, do it, do it, yeah, yeah
Dusty Springfield, nome d'arte di Mary Isabel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien (Londra, 16 aprile 1939 – Henley-on-Thames, 2 marzo 1999), è stata una cantante britannica il cui impatto sulla storia del costume e della musica popolare britannica del XX secolo è paragonabile a quello che Mina ha avuto in Italia o Dalida ebbe in Francia. Mary è la secondogenita di Gerard e Catherine (Kay) O'Brien, immigrati irlandesi stabilitisi in uno dei quartieri operai della periferia nord di Londra. Cresce nel sobborgo di Ealing e già da bambina si guadagna il soprannome di Dusty per il suo atteggiamento da maschiaccio. Eredita la passione per la musica dal nonno materno, che la incoraggia ad ascoltare autori come George Gershwin, Richard Rodgers, Cole Porter, Count Basie, Duke Ellington e Glenn Miller. Il suo modello musicale da ragazzina è Peggy Lee. Nel 1958 lascia la scuola e, rispondendo a un annuncio su un giornale, si unisce al gruppo delle Lana Sisters. Grazie a questa esperienza impara l'armonia vocale e il lavoro di palcoscenico. Nel 1960 inizia la sua carriera solista con il nome d'arte Dusty Springfield, ottenendo subito successo con brani come "I Only Want to Be with You" e "Stay Awhile". Nel corso degli anni '60 e '70 raggiunge fama internazionale grazie a album come "Dusty in Memphis" (1969), considerato un capolavoro del soul britannico. La sua voce potente, il suo stile elegante e la sua capacità di interpretare brani pop, soul e rhythm and blues con grande sensibilità l'hanno resa una delle artiste più ammirate della sua generazione. Dusty Springfield è stata anche una pioniera per le donne nella musica, sfidando i canoni di genere e ottenendo un successo duraturo nonostante le difficoltà del mondo musicale.
