You gotta keep on makin' me high
You gotta keep on makin' me high
You gotta keep on makin' me high
If you're feeling sad and blue
Come on and dance with me
I can make your dreams come true
Ladies get up off your seats

Gentlemen get on your feet
Come on and dance with me
Say the word and I'll summon the band
With my hand
Let your mind and your body be free
Dance with me, ha
