Stand back, and give me room And listen to that beat I got the music in my soul And the rhythm in my feet When I hear the music You won't catch me standing still And I won't miss a beat I never have and I never will
And you thought I couldn't dance And you thought I couldn't dance
I can dance to anything That any band can play I've got old-fashioned values But I'm pretty up to date And I know all the latest hits On the radio You don't have to join me Stand back and watch my show
And you thought I couldn't dance And you thought I couldn't dance
Thought I couldn't dance Hey, watch me prance Let's make romance Thought I couldn't dance You gotta take a chance If you're gonna learn to dance And you thought I couldn't dance And you thought I couldn't dance
There's a lot of closet dancers Just dyin' to come out They dance alone inside their rooms With the music way up loud And I know you thought I couldn't dance But I guess I sure fooled you It just goes to show you never know Who's wearing dancin' shoes
And you thought I couldn't dance I'm full of surprises And you thought I couldn't dance
It's too late now I can't slow down...can't slow down
Oh, feel the heat From these dancin' feet... can't slow down
And you thought I couldn't dance And you thought I couldn't dance
