Than fittin’
Yes I, yes I, yes I would

I’d rather be dancin’

I’d rather be dancin’
Dancin’

Never gonna know if you’re scared to try
Just keep moving, win or losing
I’m not gonna wait while my life goes by
I don’t lose it, I just do it
Never gonna know if you’re scared to try
Just keep moving, win or losing
Gotta take a leap, just jump and fly
Just jump and fly

I’d rather be dancin’
Dancin’
I’d rather be dancin’
Dancin’

Dancin’
Dancin’
Dancin’

Only one thing I want in this world
One thing, one thing
Only one thing that’s right for this girl
Dancin’

I’d rather be dancin’
Out there on the floor
I’d rather be dancin’
Get out there on the floor
Never gonna know if you’re scared to try
Gotta take a leap, just jump and fly
Jump and fly

I’d rather be dancin’
