Everybody
The Apples Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody wants to dance with my baby:
Everybody wants to hold her for a song.
Ain't a man alive she don't drive crazy.
All them boys, they just can't leave her alone.

Every "Cool Luke" is cuttin' in.
Every cowboy wants to take a spin.
Every young buck wants her,
Skin-to-skin.

Everybody wants to dance with my baby:
Everybody wants to hold her for a song.
Ain't a man alive she don't drive crazy.
All them boys, they just can't leave her alone.

When the music starts to play,
Every Joe, whoa, looks her way.
They just want to be close to her,
Feel that body sway.

Instrumental Break.

Everybody wants to dance with my baby:
Everybody wants to hold her for a song.
Ain't a man alive she don't drive crazy.
All them boys, they just can't leave her alone.

Everybody wants to dance with my baby:
Everybody wants to hold her for a song.
(Ain't a man alive.)
Ain't a man,
(She don't drive crazy.)
She don't drive crazy.
All them boys, they just can't leave her alone.





Everybody wants to dance with my baby.
