Cryin' Out Loud - You Can Dance to the Blues

We was loadin' in one night at the Porthole Bay
Little girl walked up, said "I got somethin' to say"
Me and my friends we done had a bad day
Wanna get real loose, dance the night away
They told me at the bar "What kinda music you do?
I wanna know right now, can you dance to blues?"
I said "Hey little girl, I know you're just 22
I'll tell ya right now, you can dance to the blues"
The sticks started clickin' and the drummer counted in
The whole rhythm section, they was ready to dig in
Them guitar amps, all turned up to ten
I said "Here we go, girl
Let the dancin' begin"
And we danced to the blues
(Danced to the blues)
And she danced to the blues
(Danced to the blues)
Kicked off them high-heeled shoes
(Dance to the blues)
You can dance to the blues
(Dance to the blues)
We was bumpin' and jumpin' and thumpin' all night long
She started dancin' when the music kicked in
Joined right away by five of her friends
Every boy in the house tryin' to cut in
I could already tell how this night would end
We was gonna bring the whole house down
With all the crazy ladies a bouncin' around
And we danced to the blues
(Danced to the blues)
And she danced to the blues
(Danced to the blues)
Kicked off them high-heeled shoes
(Dance to the blues)
You can dance to the blues
(Dance to the blues)
We was bumpin' and jumpin' and thumpin' all night long
(All night long, yeah)
By the second set they was up on the stage
You could tell these girls knew how to misbehave
One of the girls made her way back to Pat
Said "Hey drummer boy, can I dance on your lap?"
Well he looked up at her, without missin' a beat
Slapped his thigh said "Come on, have a seat"
And she danced to the blues
(Danced to the blues)
And we danced to the blues
(To the blues)
Kicked off them high-heeled shoes
(To the blues)
You can dance to the blues
(To the blues)
We was bumpin' and jumpin' and thumpin' all night long
(All night long, yeah)
By the end of the night her shirt was soakin' wet
She said "Half of its beer, and half of its sweat"
Let me tell you, buddy, I can't thank you enough
This here blues is incredible stuff
And I heard her say as she scooped up her shoes
"I had no idea I could dance to the blues"
And we danced to the blues
(To the blues)
And we danced to the blues
(To the blues)
Kicked off them high-heeled shoes
You can dance to the blues
(To the blues)
We was bumpin' and jumpin' and thumpin' all night long
And we danced to the blues
(Danced to the blues)
And we danced to the blues
(To the blues)
Kicked off them high-heeled shoes
You can dance to the blues
(To the blues)
We was bumpin' and jumpin' and thumpin' all night long
(All night long)
We was bumpin' and jumpin' and thumpin' all night long.
(All night long now)
We was bumpin and jumpin and thumpin' and bumpin' and bumpin' and jumpin' and thumpin'
All night long
