I wanna be a dancin' man
While I can
Gonna leave my footsteps on the sands of time
If I never leave a dime

Never gonna be a millionaire
I don't care
I'll be rich as old King Midas might've been
Least until the tide comes in

Let other men build mighty nations
And buildings to the sky
I'll leave a few creations
To show that I was dancin' by

I wanna be free as any bird can be
Yessirree
Gonna leave my footsteps on the sands of time
If I never leave a dime
Dancin' man with footsteps on the sands of rhythm and rhyme

(dance break)

A dancin' man with footsteps on the sands of rhythm
