Jesse Malin - Dance with the System

Getting down
Getting down to the heart and soul

I was bound
I was bound in the arms of love

I was lost
I was lost like a holocaust

So dance with the system like you're down on your back
Dance with the system like it's blood on the tracks
Dance with the system in your rebel boots
Dance with the system like you're swinging the blues

Getting down
Getting down and out of love

When I met you, I was so messed up
When I saw you, I was out of luck
When I felt you, there was nowhere I could hide

Getting down like a stranger on the town

Stay free and you don't owe me
One day you're gonna realize
We got a good thing, don't let them burn it down

Dance with the system like you're down on your back
Dance with the system like it's blood on the tracks
Dance with the system in your rebel boots
Dance with the system like you're swinging the blues

Getting down
Getting down in the arms of love
Going round like a stranger on the town

Dance with the system
Dance with the system
Dance with the system
Dance with the
