DANCE, DANCE, DANCE |
YOU CAN GET BY |
EVERYBODY DANCE |
- Dance dance dance dance
- Keep on dancin'
- Dance dance dance dance
-
- This dancin' to the beat
- Feel the beat, I'm movin' my feet
-
- Headed t'wards the floor
- Gotta get down, get down some more
-
- (*) Rhumba, tango, Latin hustle too
- Yowsah, yowsah, yowsah
- I wanna boogie with you
-
- (**) Ooh what a treat
- Feels so sweet, ah, that body heat
- When I'm dancin' with my baby
- Drives me crazy, makes me hazy
-
- (* repeat)
-
- Dance dance dance dance
- (repeat 4 times)
-
- (***) Dance dance dance dance
- Keep on, keep on
-
- Dance dance dance dance
- Keep on dancin'
- Dance dance dance dance
- Keep on, keep on
- Dance dance dance dance
-
- (*** repeat 2 times)
- (** repeat)
- (* repeat)
- (*** repeat)
-
- Dance dance dance dance
- (repeat 4 times)

- (*) You can get by if you try
-
- You can get by if you try
-
- Somewhere in the city
- There's someone for you
- Maybe in some doorway
- You know love begins there too
-
- I know it's a pity
- To be so all alone
- The bed seems so empty
- And not a ring from the phone
-
- (* repeat 2 times)
-
- You may not be pretty
-
- Oh but you can be, you know
- Take off those shabby clothes, girl
- And let your beauty show
- Make yourself a lovely woman
- And get yourself a man
- Then you will be happy
- You can do it, yes you can, hey hey
-
- (* repeat 4 times)
-
- (* repeat and fade)
|
- (*) Everybody dance, do do do do
- Clap your hands, clap your hands
-
- (* repeat 3 times)
-
- Music never lets you down
- Keeps a smile on your face
- Any time, any place
-
- Dancin' helps relieve the pain
-
- Soothes your mind
-
- Makes you happy again
- Listen to those dancin' feet
- Close your eyes and let go
- But it don't mean a thing
-
- If it ain't got that swing
-
- (* repeat 4 times)
-
- Spin me all around the floor
- Just like Rogers and Astaire
-
- Hoof all night without a care
- Struttin' to our favourite tune
- Oh the time always ends too soon
- Everybody's dancin'
- Let your feet have some fun
- Come on, everybody, get on your feet
-
- Clap your hands
- Everybody's screamin'
-
- (* repeat 8 times)
-
- (* repeat and fade)

EST-CE QUE C'EST CHIC |
FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU |
STRIKE UP THE BAND |
- (*) Est-ce que c'est chic
- Ou simplement ordinaire
-
- Est-ce que c'est chic chic
-
- Être .
- Est-ce que c'est chic
- Ou simplement ordinaire
-
- Est-ce que c'est chic chic
-
- Won't get far
- Hangin' at the local bar
-
- Will she ever be a star
- And ride around in a fancy car
-
- And buy expensive things
- Like furs and diamond rings
-
- All alone she lives her life
- In the midst of us
-
- She can't believe her eyes
- All the rest of her
-
- (**) And it's the little things
- She says to me
- Makes me think the girl's
- In need of a family
-
- (* repeat)
-
- It's really strange
- Everytime I hear her name
- Will she always be the same
- Just spendin' life in search of fame
- You should see the girl
- She's such a crazy thing
- Every night it's the same old dream
- Rehearsing lines for tomorrow's scenes
- But it's real in the morning babe
-
- (** repeat)
- (* repeat and fade)
|
- I think of you, honey, night and day
-
- And it's your sweet lovin'
-
- That makes me feel this way
- I'm not ashamed, oh no not me
-
- Everyone should know
- This is how love should be
-
- (*) And now that I've given you my heart
- Please be gentle, baby
- When the lovin' starts, cause
-
- (**) Falling in love with you
- It's all I want to do
- Falling in love with you tonight
- Falling in love with you
- It's all I want do
- Tonight, tonight
-
- I see your picture
- I hear your name
-
- I try to hide it, baby
- But the feeling's still the same
-
- I see your face, such a warm face
- I wanna touch you
- Or just feel your embrace
-
- (* repeat)
- (** repeat and fade)
|
- (*) Strike up, up the band
- Makin' music is our plan
- Got to feel the rhythm if you can
- Just want to strike up, up the band
-
- (* repeat)
-
- Got to feel the rhythm
- Got to feel the rhythm
- Got to feel the rhythm
-
- (* repeat and fade)
