Lyrics
You know this boogie is for real
I used to put my faith in worship
But then my chance to get to heaven slipped
I used to worry about the future
But then I threw my caution to the wind
I had no reason to be care free, 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, nothing left for me to do but dance
Off these bad times I'm going through just dance
Got canned heat in my heals tonight, baby
I feel the thunder, see the lightning
I know this anger's heaven sent
So I've got to hang out all my hang-ups
Because of the boogie I feel so hell bent, hey, hey
It's just an instant gut reaction, that I got
I know I never ever felt like this before
I don't know what to do but then that's nothing new
Stuck between hell and high water I need a cure to make it through
Hey, dancing, nothing left for me to do but dance
Off these bad times I'm going through just dance
Hey, got canned heat in my heals tonight, baby
You know, know, know I'm gonna dance, yeah
Off the nasty things that people say
Dance yeah, but I'm gonna make it anyway
Dance yeah, got canned heat in my heels tonight baby
You know I've got canned heat up my heels
You know this boogie is for real
Only the wind can blow the answer
And she cries to me when I'm asleep
She says you know that you can go much faster
I know that peoples' talk can be so cheap, hey
I got this voodoo child in veined on me
I'm gonna use my power to ascend
You know I got these running heels to use
Sometimes there's no way I lose, I was born to run and built to last
You've never seen my feet 'cause they move so fast
Dance yeah, hey, nothing left for me to do but dance
Off these bad times I'm going through just dance, hey
Got canned heat in my heals tonight, baby
Hey, I've got to dance, yeah
Off the nasty things that people say
Dance yeah, but I'm gonna make it anyway
Dance yeah, got canned heat in my heels tonight, baby
You know this boogie is for real
Got so much canned heat in my heels, yeah
Gonna dance, gonna dance my blues away tonight
You know I'm gonna dance my blues away
You know this boogie is for real
Got so much canned heat in my heels, yeah
Gonna dance, gonna dance my blues away tonight
Dance, come on (got canned heat in my heels tonight)
Dance, canned heat in my heels tonight
Dance, canned heat in my heels tonight, baby
Hey, got so much
Dance
Hey, DJ, let the music play
(Let the music play)
I'm gonna let this party live
(I wanna let this party live)
Hey DJ, throw my cares away (let the music play)
I'm gonna let this party live (I wanna let this party live)
Hey DJ, let the music play (I'm gonna let this party live)
I'm gonna let this party live
(I wanna live this party)
Hey, DJ throw my cares away, I'm gonna let this party live, hey
Wear my heels tonight (dance)
You know, know this boogie is for real (dance)
Got so much canned heat in my heels (dance)
Gonna dance, gonna dance my blues away tonight (dance)
You know, you know this boogie, this boogie is for real (dance)
Got so much canned heat, canned heat in my heels (dance)
You know I'm gonna dance my blues away tonight (dance)
You know I'm gonna dance my blues away tonight (dance)
