The Replacements - You Ain't Gotta Dance Lyrics

The Replacements Lyrics

"You Ain't Gotta Dance"

Rock 'n' roll
Used to make you quiver
A long, long time ago
Turning that
You crossed that river
A long, long time ago
You said no

Rock 'n' roll
It used to excite you
A long, long time ago
Turning that
It can't entice you
A long, long time ago

You ain't gotta dance
Dancing
You ain't gotta dance
Dance with me

Rock 'n' roll
Don't take no talent
You said obviously
You try it like that
You do it like this
That's the way it's gonna be

You ain't gotta dance
Dancing
You ain't gotta dance
Don't dance with me

Oh, rock 'n' roll
Used to make me cooler
Such a long time ago
I'd do it like that
If I could only win her
When I don't know

You ain't gotta dance
You ain't gotta dance
You ain't gotta dance
You ain't gotta dance
