Lyrics
DANCE!
Intro:
Come on Tucson?it?s Friday Night?
The Santa Cruz is swinging
Luna?s shining her light
The water may not be running
But we?re gonna get wet
Got a tide of funky music
And a stream full of sweat
Verse:
Got my high heels on
And my dancing feet
Ready for fun in the desert heat
Come on down
Don?t ya be afraid
If it gets too hot
We?ll kind a little shade
Chorus:
Dance X3 ?til your dogs bark
Dance X3 make your own mark
Dance dance all night long
Dance to your own song
Verse:
Mr. Mesquite
You know it?s time to move
You don?t need rhythm
Just got to feel the groove
Come on Coyote
Let me hear you sing
Harmelodic
Heard that was your thing!
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Come on sweet child
Let me take you by the hand
Daddy Diamondback doing his thing in the sand
Shaking his mighty rattle in perfect time
Hoping to get a sip of Dr. Jay?s moonshine
(Chorus out)
