Dancin' Alone

[Verse 1]

On a boulevard in Paris

I met a good old friend of mine

"Come on over to my place

Bring yourself and a bottle of wine"

So I put on my leathers

And I tried to look my best

But I was apprehensive

I noticed I was the only guest

[Chorus]

It was then I witnessed

Something I'd never seen

Some satisfaction

Dancin' alone

Dancin' alone

Listen

[Verse 2]

There's a white house in Georgia

Down the Mason-Dixon line

They got Kentucky Derby winners there

They got a Lear jet parked outside

Yeah but every Friday weekend

When the big tom cat's away

You'll find the plantation shakin'

By the butler and the upstairs maid

[Chorus]

Don't need no money, diamonds or Cadillacs

To get all the satisfaction dancin' alone

Dancin' alone

Dancin' alone

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Don't you worry

Bout the problems of the human race

Get some satisfaction dancin' alone

Dancin' alone, baby

Listen to this

[Verse 3]

At a hot spot in Texas

On an endless Friday night

I was listenin' to Waylon and Willie

When a cowgirl passed my sights

And I took a look in the mirror

To make sure that my head was screwed on

I was feeling rejected

But I wasn't going home

In a moment of a rash decision

I threw myself right on the floor

I did a backflip and somersault

Yeah, the crowd called for more

[Chorus]

So if you're tired of watching

Being left on the shelf

Get your satisfaction dancin' alone

Dancin' alone, dancin' alone

Dancin' alone, dancin' alone

Dancin' alone baby
