You know this boogie is for real
I used to put my faith in worship
But then a chance to get too heaven sent
I used to worry about the future
But then Ill throw my caution to the wi-i-i-ind
I had no reason to be carefree
No no no
Until I took a trip to the other side of town
Yeah yeah, yeah
You know I heard that boogie rhythm (hey!)
I had no choice but to get down, down, down, down
Dance.whooo!
Nothing left for me to do but
Dance
All these bad times Im going through, just
Dance
Got canned heat in my heels tonight, baby...
Whoooooo ohhh
I feel the thunder,
See the lightning
I know this angers heaven sent
So Ive got to hang out on my hang-ups
Cos on the boogie I feel so hell-bent
(hey, hey)
Its just an instant gut reaction, that I get
I know Ive never ever felt like this before
I dont know what to do
But then thats nothing new
Stuck between hell and high water
Me Ill kill to make it through (hey!)
Danceyeah
Nothing left for me to do but
Dance
All these bad times Im going through, just
Danceyeah
Got canned heat in my heels tonight, baby...
You know I got canned heat in my heels
You know this boogie is for real
Only the wind can blow the answer
And she cries to me when Im asleep
She says you know that you can go much faster
I know that peoples talk can be so cheap
Yeah yeah
I got this voodoo child inveined on me
Im gonna use my power to ascend
You know I got these running heels to use
Sometimes theres no way to lose
I was born to run
And built to last
Youve never seen my feet
They can go so fast
Danceyeah, hey!
Nothing left for me to do but
Dance
All these bad times Im going through just
Dancehey
Got canned heat in my heels tonight, baby
