I Can't Dance
Wicked Rumble Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Burning my feet just walking around
Hot sun makin\' me sweat
Gators getting close, hasn\'t got me yet
I can\'t dance
I can\'t talk
Only thing about me is the way I walk
I can\'t dance
I\'m just standing here selling everything
Blue jeans sittin\' on the beach
Her dog\'s talking to me, but she\'s out of reach
Mhm, she\'s got a body under that shirt
But all she wants to do is rub my face in the dirt
\'Cause I can\'t dance
I can\'t talk
Only thing about me is the way I walk
I can\'t dance
I can\'t sing
I\'m just standing here sellin\'
Oh and checking everything is in place
You never know who\'s lookin\' on
Young punk spillin\' beer on my shoes
Fat guy\'s talkin\' to me tryin\' to steal my blues
Thick smoke, see her smiling through
I never thought so much could happen just shootin\' pool
But I can\'t dance
I can\'t talk
The only thing about me is the way that I walk
I can\'t dance
I can\'t sing
I\'m just standing here sellin\'
Oh and checking everything is in place
You never know who\'s looking on
A perfect body with a perfect face
Mhm
No, I can\'t dance
I can\'t talk
The only thing about me is the way I walk
No, I can\'t dance
I can\'t sing
I\'m just standing here sellin\' everything
I can\'t walk
No, I can\'t dance
I said, I can\'t sing

@user-tq3rg1py2g
Превосходное исполнение! Молодчаги!!!)))
@HoochieMen
Хм.. Blues Metal это кстати то что давно искал но отчаялся. (нечно похожее в Пантеры местами ну и пары техасских комманд. А у вас прям все огонь) Очень круто, ребят. (вижу тут русские комментарии, предположу что вы русские). Почему так мало просмотров?? Подписался, буду следить. Пошел изучать канал :)
@WickedRumble
Алексей, спасибо за отзыв, стараемся делать как следует)) Да, мы из России. Просмотров мало пока, т.к. ютубом плотно занялись недавно - только в этом году, а конкуренция за просмотры сейчас лютая, алгоритмы работают не так, как 5 или 10 лет назад, все жестко. Можно лить деньги в рекламу, бюджетов у нас особо на это нет, т.к. нет ни инвесторов, ни спонсоров, ни меценатов, стараемся как-то сами, своими силами и в рамках семейного бюджета))) Но мы не сдаемся, продолжаем работать, так что оставайся с нами, впереди масса интересного!)))
