Song Lyrics

I was travellin' down the road
Feelin' hungry and cold
I saw a sign down the road sayin'
Food and drinks for everyone
So naturally I thought
I would take me a look inside
I saw so much food
There was water coming from my eyes

Yeah there was ham and there was turkey
There was caviar
And long tall glasses
With wine up to why'are
And somebody grabbed me
Threw me out on my chair
Said before you can eat
You gotta dance like Fred Astaire

You know I can't dance you know I can't dance
You know I can't dance you know I can't dance
I can't dance

I am a man of the road
A hobo by name
I don't seek entertainment
Just poultry and game
But if it's all the same to you
Then yes I will try my hand
If you were hungry as me
Then I'm sure you will understand

Now wait a minute

Of course I can dance
Of course I can dance
I'm sure I can dance
I'm sure I can dance
I can dance
I really hit the floor
Ah it feels good
Look at me dancing

I did a two-step quick-step and a bossa nova
A little Victor Sylvester and a Rudy Valentino
You should have seen me moving
Right across the floor
Hand me down my tuxedo
Next week I'm coming back for more

I can dance
Oh yes I can dance
Look at me dance on the floor moving
I feel good
I can dance
I can dance
I can dance
I can dance
I can dance
I can dance
