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



Repeat...
