[Verse 1]
When I was a lad, you know I felt real bad
When I discovered I had two left feet
At every school dance, I would not strut nor prance
And I seldom left my seat

[Chorus]
And no one was so kind to take the time
To explain this simple truth to me
If you wanna learn to dance
If you wanna find romance
All you gotta do is shake your ass
And put some rhythm to It

[Verse 2]
On that day at school, I'd learned the golden rule
Not to let your feelings show
But every time I'd stand and take my date in hand
I'd be trembling from head to toe

[Chorus]
And no one was so kind to take the time
To explain this simple truth to me
If you wanna learn to dance
If you wanna find romance
All you gotta do is shake your ass
And put some rhythm to It
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
And no one was so kind to take the time
To explain this simple truth to me
If you wanna learn to dance
If you wanna find romance
All you gotta do is shake your ass
And put some rhythm to It
