Lyrics

"Dance"
John Nanni, Karin Paparelli, Tirk Wilder
On the east side of town, set back from the road,
Folks gather in a dark and crowded room,
They come from miles around, both young and old,
To get down to the tune,
CHORUS
You gotta dance like your feet caught fire,
Let your hair come tumbling down,
Dance, like your heart's gone wild,
And there's no one else around,

They play a little salsa, they do a little swing,
The band knows how to really make you move,
Heated up and jumpin', shakin' like the King,
Doesn't really matter what you do,
Repeat CHORUS
BRIDGE
You can get the rhythm moving under your skin,
Forget all your troubles, face the world with a grin,
Repeat CHORUS Twice and tag.
