(Gary Brooker Pete Sinfield)



Well she looked me up and down

I said I'd just got into town

She said welcome it's a friendly kind of place

So I asked her if by chance

She knew where a man could dance

She said Yes Sir and a smile lit up her face



I said did she

She said I do

I said would she

She said with you

I said well now if that's OK

But if you wanna boogie baby

Lets stop wasting time this way



Get up and dance you newer know what you might find

Get up and dance nobody cares nobody minds

Get up and dance you in the corner don't be shy

Get up and dance let the music get you high

Get up and dance get up and dance



Well we danced the night away

I said I have no place to stay

She said well you've got a friendly kind of face

So I asked her if by chance

She could help a man who danced

She said Yes Sir I know just the place



I said did she

She said I do

I said would she

She said with you

I said well now if that's OK

But if we're gonna make it baby

Lets stop wasting time this way



Get up and dance go and find a hand to hold

Get up and dance you know it stops you gettin' old

Get up and dance there ain't a thing you've got to loose

Get up and dance I want you rockin' in your shoes

Get up and dance get up and dance
