Canned Heat (Remastered 2006)

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 carefree - no, no, no

'Til 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 heels, 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

'Cause of the boogie, I feel so Hell-bent, hey, hey

It's just an instant gut reaction, that I got

I know I've 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

Need a cure to make it through, hey!

Dance, yeah, nothing left for me to do but dance

Of these bad times I'm going through, just dance, hey

Got canned heat in my heels, tonight, baby

You know I got canned heat in my heels

You know this boogie is for real

Only the wind can know the answer

And she cries to me when I'm asleep

She says you know that you can go much faster

I know that people's talk can be so cheap, hey, hey

I've got this voodoo child in-veined on me

I'm gonna use my power to ascend

You know I've got these running heels to use

Sometimes there's no way I lose

I was born to run and built to last

You never see my feet 'cause they move so fast

Dance, yeah, nothing left for me to do but dance

Off these bad times I'm going through, just dance, hey

Got canned heat in my heels, tonight, baby

Dance!

Hey, DJ, let the music play (Let the music play, yeah)

I'm gonna live this party life (I wanna live this party life)

Hey, DJ, throw my cares away (Let the music play, yeah)

I'm gonna live this party life (I wanna live this party life)

Hey, DJ, let the music play (I wanna live this party life)

I'm gonna live this party life (I wanna live this party life)

Hey, DJ, throw my cares away (Let the music play, yeah)

I'm gonna live this party life (I wanna live this party life)

You know that 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!)
