Lyrics

I CAN'T DANCE

Toe-tappin' jukebox tune, you wanna step the line
I 'preciate your askin', but I really must decline
It's not that I don't want to, I'll tell you in advance
I got two left feet and one don't beat
And honey, I can't dance

Me tryin' to boogie would be social suicide
I can barely walk right now and you want me to slide?
The only rhythm that I got is in my drinkin' hand
There's no do-se-do in these ten toes...
And honey, I can't dance

Now, I'm checking out the floor and I don't mean to ridicule
But I can't say I'm interested in jumping 'round there like a fool
If I was inclined to, darlin', I would surely trip
And if I tried to bust a move, I'd likely bust a hip

So you can tell your girlfriends I'm a loser, if you choose
'cause it ain't easy to resist those beck'ning baby blues
Any other guy in here would give in to your charms
But I'm gonna need a doctor if you keep tuggin' at my arm

I know the difference between waltz and jitterbug
But that won't cut the mustard when it's time to cut a rug
Please don't take it personal, I hope you understand
I'll just sit right here and sip my beer
'cause honey, I can't dance
