You know this boogie is for real

I used to put my faith in worship
But then a chance to get too heaven sent
I used to worry about the future
But then i'll throw my caution to the wi-i-i-ind
I had no reason to be carefree
No no no
Until 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¡­.whooo!
Nothing left for me to do but
Dance
All these bad times i'm going through, just
Dance
Got canned heat in my heels tonight, baby...
Whoooooo ohhh

I feel the thunder,
See the lightning
I know this anger's heaven sent
So i've got to hang out on my hang-ups
Cos on the boogie i feel so hell-bent
(hey, hey)
It's just an instant gut reaction, that i get
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
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¡­yeah
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 blow the answer
And she cries to me when i'm asleep
She says you know that you can go much faster
I know that peoples' talk can be so cheap
Yeah yeah
I got this voodoo child inveined on me
I'm gonna use my power to ascend
You know i got these running heels to use
Sometimes there's no way to lose
I was born to run
And built to last
You've never seen my feet
They can go so fast

Dance¡­yeah, hey!
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
Whoooooo ohhh
Dance!

I'm gonna live this party live
Hey dj
Throw my cares away
I'm gonna live this party live
Hey dj
Let the music play
I'm gonna this live this party live
Hey dj
Throw my cares away
I'm gonna live this party live

You know, you know this boogie is for real
Got so much canned heat in my heels
Gonna dance, gonna dance my blues away tonight
Whoooooooo!
You know, you know this boogie
This boogie is for real
Got so much canned heat
Canned heat in my heels.
You know i'm gonna dance my blues away tonight
