Thought I Couldn't Dance

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

And you thought I couldn't dance

And you thought I couldn't dance
