Lyrics

Back on the Street Again

I don't care if I got no money

I don't care if I got a dime

All I want to do is to dance with you honey

Please tell me that you have the time

'Cause I got to get back on my feet again

Got to get back on the street again

La la la la la

La la la la la

Well, I don't care if I got no fame

All I want to do is to hold your hand

Don't care if nobody knows my name

'Cause I just want to try the best I can, yes I do

Gotta get back on my feet again

Gotta get back on the street again yeah

La la la la la

La la la la la

I don't know just what the world is coming to

And I don't know just what is going on, and momma do you?

Well, all I really know is I got to get back on my feet again, yeah baby

Help me up now please, baby

I don't care if I got no money

I don't care if I got a dime

All I want to do is to dance with you baby

Please tell me that you have the time

'Cause I got to get back on my feet again

Got to get back on the street again

La la la la la

La la la la la

Listen

La la la la la

La la la la la

Yeah now baby

Stand it up for me now
