Let’s Dance Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I awoke I was feeling blue
So I took a shower to make me feel brand new
As I turned on the radio
I heard a rappin' song that made me go-go-go
So I listened good to what was said
Man, the rap was good, I just lost my head
So I left my house just to take a walk
And find my friend so we can talk
I walked and walked all over town
Bumped into big fat Larry Brown
He said "Ben, now where are you going to?"
I said "To find some friends to talk to!"
So walking down this avenue
I heard this song not quite new
The bassline's good and the drummer too
I thought let mе see what I can do

[Chorus]
Not too fast and not too slow
But with a feeling that makes you go-go-go!
I said not too fast and not too slow
But with a feeling that makes you go-go-go!
I said not too fast and not too slow
But with a feeling that makes you go-go-go!
Not too fast and not too slow
But with a feeling that makеs you go-go-go!
Aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah...!

[Verse 2]
So I cast my mind to the radio
And the first time I heard Mister Kurtis Blow
Now let me try to put in some word
Nothing fancy as long as it flow
The bassline's good and the drummer too
I thought let me see what I can do
We can do it fast, or we can do it slow
We may even get on the TV show

[Chorus]
Not too fast and not too slow
But with a feeling that makes you go-go-go!
Not too fast, not too slow
But with a feeling that makes you go-go-go!
I said not too fast and not too slow
But with a feeling that makes you go-go-go!
Not too fast, not too slow
But with a feeling that makes you go-go-go!

Aaah, aaah, aah, aaah...!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
