lyrics

I’ve been searching for a new dance
To give my heart a new chance
To teach my feet to celebrate
The girl that’s giving me a new glance

This new thing can’t be old, mmm
But it’s got to have soul
So I take her back to my place
And tell her “baby put a record on”

Then she starts to dancing
Then she starts to swinging them hips
Then she starts to singing oh no

She sings the same old song
Should’ve known it all along
It gets the feeling wrong, it goes

(La la lala, lalala) Don’t you know another song?
(La la lala, lalala) Girl, don’t you know another song?
(La la lala, lalala) Girl, don’t you know another
I can’t sing that same old song

Girl, can’t you sing me another song
Don’t matter if you get the words wrong
Just hum a sweet melody
And make sure you stay in key

Then she starts to dancing
Then she starts to swinging them hips
Then she starts to singing oh no

She sings the same old song
It gets the feeling wrong, it goes

Girl, can’t you sing me another song
Don’t matter if you get the words wrong
Just hum a sweet melody
And make sure you stay in key

I believe I've heard that song before
