I Gotta Dance to Keep from Cryin' - The Miracles

Come on everybody we’re gonna have a party right now!

I’m tired of sitting around here feeling blue

Gather 'round me swingers and friends

Help me forget my hurt within

About the only girl I ever loved

The only one I’m thinking of

And I’ve gotta dance to keep from crying

I’ve gotta dance to keep from crying oh-oh-ah

Do the monkey and do the twist

Everybody, it goes like this

Come on and dance for me swingers it’s alright

Dance for me swingers all night

Cause nights are lonely since we parted

And memories leave me so brokenhearted

I’ve gotta dance to keep from crying

I’ve gotta dance to keep from crying

Do the bird, do the fly

Come on, gang, bop bop bop bop

Do the bang, that you feel

Everybody dance, don’t stay still

Dance for me swingers all night

Dance for me swingers all night

Heartaches have gathered 'round me

Misery has surely found me

I’ve gotta dance to keep from crying

I’ve gotta dance to keep from crying oh-oh-ah

Gather 'round me girls and boys

I think we’re making too much noise

So get soft, oh-ah, just a little bit soft

Just a little bit soft, soft, soft

Just a little bit softer softer softer ooh

Just a little bit softer

(Just a little bit higher)

Come on and dance for me swingers

Dance for me swingers

Do the monkey and do the twist

Everybody do the twist

Do the bird, do the fly

Come on you can do it if you try

Dance for me swingers

Dance for me swingers
