Some Days You Gotta Dance Lyrics

Well, it was 'bout five till five on a Friday

We were all gettin' ready to go

The boss man started screamin'

His veins began to show



He said you and you come with me

'Cause you're gonna have to stay

My heart was thumpin', I was jumpin'

And I had to get away



Some days you gotta dance

Live it up when you get the chance

'Cause when the world doesn't make no sense

And you're feelin' just a little too tense

You gotta loosen up those chains and dance



Well, I was talkin' to my baby

Over a small glass of tea

She asked the loaded question

She said how do you feel about me?



Well, my mind was racin', I was pacin'

But the words, they never would come

And there was only one thing

Left to do I feel it comin' on



Some days you gotta dance

Live it up when you get the chance

'Cause when the world doesn't make no sense

And you're feelin' just a little too tense

Gotta loosen up those chains and dance, come on



Some days you gotta dance

Live it up when you get the chance

'Cause when the world doesn't make no sense

And you're feelin' just a little too tense

You gotta loosen up those chains and dance, ooh, yeah



You gotta loosen up those chains and dance, dance

Want you to loosen up those chains and dance with me
