Lyrics

Try ing (A)hard to fight these tears, I’m cra zy wor ried.

Mess ing (A)with my head, this fear, I’m so sor ry.

You know, ya (B)got ta get it out, I can’t take it.

that’s what (B)be ing friends’ a bout.

(C#m)I, I want to cry, I can’t de ny, to night I want to up and hide.

Get in side, it is n’t right, I’ve got to live in my life.

I know I, I know I, I know I’ve got to do it.

I know I, I know I, I know I’ve got to do it.

Got to turn the world in to your dance floor.

De ter mi nate, de de ter mi nate.

Push un til you can’t and then de mand more.

De ter mi nate, de de ter mi nate.

(A)You and me to geth er, (C#m)we can make it bet ter.

Got to turn the world in to your dance floor.

De ter mi nate, de de ter mi nate.

(C#m)Hate to feel this way and waste a day, I’ve got to get my self on stage.

Should n’t wait or be a fraid, the chips will fall where they may.

I know I, I know I, I know I’ve got to do it.

I know I, I know I, I know I’ve got to do it.

Got to turn the world in to your dance floor.

De ter mi nate, de de ter mi nate.

Push un til you can’t and then de mand more.

De ter mi nate, de de ter mi nate.

(A)You and me to geth er, (C#m)we can make it bet ter.

Got to turn the world in to your dance floor.

’Cause we’re com ing to your house and peo ple keep on smil ing like a lem on’s in their mouth.

I’m the real deal, you know how I feel.

Get down now, I ain’t play ing ’round, put your feet up from the ground and just make that sound right.

Come on and, come on and, come on and get it go ing.

Come on and, come on and, come on and get it go ing.

On the dance floor, on the dance floor, d d d dance floor, de de ter mi nate.
