Thought I Couldn’t Dance Songtext
von Dolly Parton

Stand back, and give me room
And listen to that beat
I got the music in my soul
And the rhythm in my feet
When I hear the music
You won′t catch me standing still
And I won't miss a beat
I never have and I never will
And you thought I couldn′t dance
And you thought I couldn't dance

I can dance to anything
That any band can play
I've got old-fashioned values
But I′m pretty up to date
And I know all the latest hits
On the radio
You don′t have to join me
Stand back and watch my show


And you thought I couldn't dance
And you thought I couldn′t dance

(Thought I couldn't dance)
Hey, watch me prance
Let′s make romance
(Thought I couldn't dance)
You gotta take a chance
If you′re gonna learn to dance
And you thought I couldn't dance
And you thought I couldn't dance

There′s a lot of closet dancers
Just dyin′ to come out
They dance alone inside their rooms
With the music way up loud
And I know you thought I couldn't dance
But I guess I sure fooled you
It just goes to show you never know
Who′s wearing dancin' shoes

And you thought I couldn′t dance
I'm full of surprises
And you thought I couldn′t dance


It's too late now
I can't slow down... can′t slow down

Oh, feel the heat
From these dancin′ feet... can't slow down

And you thought I couldn′t dance
And you thought I couldn't dance
And you thought I couldn′t dance
And you thought I couldn't dance
