Lyrics

[Intro]
Huh, yeah, woo
Hey, yeah, huh
Ooh yeah, uh-huh
Yeah, I wanna dance
[Verse 1]
Clock strikes upon the hour
And the sun begins to fade
Still enough time to figure out
How to chase my blues away
[PreChorus]
I've done alright up till now
It's the light of day that shows me how
And when the night falls
The loneliness calls
[Chorus]
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
[Verse 2]
I've been in love and lost my senses
Spinnin' through the town
Sooner or later the fever ends
And I wind up feeling down
[PreChorus]
I need a man who'll take a chance
On a love that burns hot enough to last
So when the night falls
My lonely heart calls
[Chorus]
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me (Somebody who, somebody who)
[Bridge]
Somebody who loves me, yeah (Somebody who, somebody who)
To hold me in his arms, oh
[PreChorus]
I need a man who'll take a chance
On a love that burns hot enough to last
So when the night falls
My lonely heart calls
[Chorus]
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh, hoo (Dance)
Come on, baby (Dance)
Woo, yeah (Dance)
Now get with this
Whoa (Dance)
[Outro]
Don't-cha wanna dance (Dance)
With me, baby?
Don't-cha wanna dance (Dance)
With me, boy?
Hey, don't-cha wanna dance (Dance)
With me, baby?
With somebody who loves me
[Outro]
Don't-cha wanna dance? Say you wanna dance
Don't-cha wanna dance? (Dance)
Don't-cha wanna dance? Say you wanna dance
Don't-cha wanna dance? (Dance)
Don't-cha wanna dance? Say you wanna dance
Uh-huh (Dance)
With somebody who loves me
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh, ooh (Dance)
Ooh-ooh, ooh (Dance)
Ooh-ooh, ooh (Dance)
Hey, baby
