You Ain't Gotta Dance - The Replacements

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

A new sensation

A long, long time ago

Turning that

Became a …

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

You ain’t gotta dance

You ain’t gotta dance

You ain’t gotta dance

You ain’t gotta dance
