The Tubes - Slipped My Disco lyrics

rate me

(Spooner/Steen)

Well the joint was jumpin'

Maybe I got too high

And the beat was familiar

My feet were too sly

I tried to hustle

I tried to bump

I was always steppin'

When it was time to jump

My baby said quit

I told her I wouldn't

If she asked me today

I'd say I couldn't

Slipped my disco--he slipped his disco

Slipped my disco when I was dancing with you, baby

I begin to wonder

is it worth the pain

Get so twisted

that you wind up lame

Maybe it's my technique

or is it my shoes

Just another white boy

with the disco blues

Sometimes my body does

things that my brain don't understand

I'm not the man I was

but my feet still think I am

And the doctor's busy

He's checking me out

He says I'm crazy

to jump and shout

I said, one more number Doc,

just one more tune

Let me out of this emergency room--and I

Slipped my disco--he slipped his disco

Slipped my disco when I was dancing with you, baby

I begin to wonder

is it worth the pain

Get so twisted

that you wind up lame

Maybe it's my technique

or is it my shoes

Just another white boy

with the disco blues
