Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you see her, so fine and pretty
Movin' with her style and ease
And you see her, from across the room
Yes it's love in the third degree
Ooh, baby baby
Ooh, baby baby
Take a chance, you're old enough to
Dance the night away
Dance, dance, dance the night away
A live wire, girl your a beginner
But just watch that lady go
She's on fire, 'cause dancin' gets her hotter than
Anything else she knows
Ooh, baby baby
Won't you turn your love my way?
Ooh, baby baby
Take a chance, you're old enough to
Dance the night away
Dance, dance, dance the night away
Woooo, oh-oh-oh oh

Dance, Dance the night away
Dance, dance, dance the night away
Dance, dance the night away yeah yeah!
Dance, dance, dance the night away
Let's dance!
