paroles de chanson I Came To Dance (Live 1985) - Nils Lofgren

Well, my manager kept tellin' me
If I wanna be great
I'd better wise up
And sing my songs straight

I said: "Hey fool, in order to survive
I gotta be my dirty self, I won't play no jive"
He told me he'd quit
I said: "Don't jump to conclusions
Maybe bein' staight ain't the right solution
I'm not Bob Dylan but I never miss a beat
I ain't no philosopher, I dance in the street"

Well, I came to dance
Yes, I came to dance
It's a rhythm romance
I'm havin' with my shoes
I've got nothin' to lose
I came to dance

Well, I came to dance
Yes, I came to dance
It's a rhythm romance
I'm havin' with my shoes
I've got nothin' to lose
I came to dance
I came to dance
I came to dance
I came to dance

I took the matter up
With a few million friends of mine
The supreme court of rock and roll
Is doing just fine
Demanding a speech
They poured me a drink
I play guitar all night and day
Just don't ask me to think

I came to dance (I came to dance)
Oh, it's a rhythm romance (I came to dance)
Yes, I came to dance
Oh, I've got a story

Well, my manager kept tellin' me
If I wanna be great
I'd better wise up
And sing my songs straight
I said: "Listen here fool, in order to survive
I gotta be my dirty self, I won't play no jive"
I came to dance
Yeah, I came to dance

I came to dance
Yes, I came to dance
It's a rhythm romance (I came to dance)
Yes, I came to dance
I came to dance (I came to dance)
I came to dance (It's a rhythm romance)
I came to dance
I came to dance
I came to dance
Yes, I came to dance
I came to dance (It's a rhythm romance)
I came to dance
