I used to worry about the future

'Cos on my boogie I feel so hell-bent hey, hey

But then that is nothing new
Stuck between hell and high water, me I'll kill to make it through, hey!
Dance, yeah
Nothing left for me to do but dance!
All these bad times I'm going through
Just dance! hey
Got canned heat in my heels tonight, baby...
You know this boogie is for real, gal
So much canned heat in my heals, yeah
Gonna dance, gonna dance my blues away tonight
You know I
