David Bowie - John, I'm Only Dancing Lyrics

David Bowie Lyrics

"John, I'm Only Dancing"

Well, Annie's pretty neat
She always eats her meat
Joey's almost strong
Bet your life he's putting us on
Oh lordy, oh lordy
You know I need some loving
Move me, touch me

John, I'm only dancing
She turns me on
But I'm only dancing
She turns me on
Don't get me wrong
I'm only dancing

Ah, shadow love was quick and keen
Life's a well thumbed machine
Saw you watching from the stairs
You're everyone that ever cared
Oh lordy, oh lordy
You know I need some loving
Move me, touch me

John, I'm only dancing
She turns me on
But I'm only dancing
She turns me on
Don't get me wrong
I'm only dancing
John, I'm only dancing
She turns me on
But I'm only dancing
She turns me on
Don't get me wrong
I'm only dancing

Dancing
Won't someone dance with me?
Touch me
