Non Stop Dance
The Gibson Brothers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you got the feeling
You try to get higher
You think you're going insane

You're almost crazy
It really drives you mad
You feel it coming your way
Have a real good time
Do the dance (Oooh!)
Have a real good time
Do the non stop dance

Oh, when you spin 'n' stompin'
There's no way out
You're getting down by the sound

And you fool about, feet around
As you inspire
It really knocks yourself out

Have a real good time
Do the dance (Yeah!)
Have a real good time
Do the non stop dance

Come on, man, y'all

Yeah, you got it now

Have a real good time
Do the non stop dance
Non stop, mmm, dance

Yeah

Non stop (Dance)
Non stop (Dance!)
Non stop (Dance!)
Non stop (Dance!)

When you got the feeling
You try to get higher
You think you're going insane

You're almost crazy
It really drives you mad
You feel it coming your way

Have a real good time
Do the dance (Hey!)
Have a real good time
Do the non stop dance

Do the dance (Do the dance)
Do the dance (You're getting down by the sound)
Do the dance (Do the dance)
Do the dance (It really knocks yourself out)
Come on, do the dance

Have a real good time
Do the non stop dance

Do the dance (Do the dance)
Do the dance (You're getting down by the sound)
Do the dance (Do the dance)
Do the dance (It really knocks yourself out)
Come on, do the dance

Have a real good time
Do the non stop dance





Do the non stop dance...
