Lyrics

I GET HIGH ON DANCIN'
I CAN FLY WHEN I'M DANCIN
I GET SO HIGH I SCRATCH UP THE SKY,
I GET HIGH ON DANCIN'.

When I was a kid a-bout knee high-I went with with my Dad-dy to the big fish fry-There was this tent and a band a-play-in'-Lot o' peo-ple there a-stomp-in an' sway-in'-Now I was born with a cur-i-ous mind-Al-ways ask-in, you know the kind-Said, why are them peop-le a-mo-vin' a-round Keep-in' their feet from hit-tin' the ground?-My Dad-dy said, "Why that's dan-cin' chile, would you like to try it for a while? Then some-bo-dy grabbed me by the hand and pulled me in-to that sway in' band-What a time I had that day-Hope that feel-in' ne-ver goes a-way-I danced and danced 'til I learned to fly-Float in' on the mu-sic, get-tin' high-(CHORUS) I GET HIGH ETC)Got the bug, I was hooked for sure, tried to get off it, even took the cure, They locked me up and tied my feet,But nothin' helped, I was back on the street, When I hear a banjo or a beatin' drum, my feet take over and my brain goes mumb, just gotta dance 'til the music's done (CHORUS) I'm one o' the lost and for-got they say-Doomed to dance 'til judge-ment day-I just can't stop-Don't e-ven try-Got-ta dance-Got-ta get high-But ne-ver you mind-I'll get by-Some things you got-ta live with 'til you die-I get the urge and I don't know why-Got-ta dance-Got-ta get high (CHORUS) I ain't smok-in' crack or snif-fin glue-But I get a high like you ne-ver knew-Just you try it-Wait and see You'll get hooked-just like me-When e-ver you hear that mu-sic play Feel your bo-dy start to sway-You just got-ta dance, that's where it's at-just got-got-ta dance and that is that! (CHORUS)
