Long Tall Glasses

Leo Sayer

I was travellin' down the road

feelin' hungry and cold

i saw a sign down the road sayin'

food and drinks for everyone

so naturally i thought

i would take me a look inside

i saw so much food

there was water coming from my eyes



yeah there was ham and there was turkey

there was caviar

and long tall glasses

with wine up to y'are

and somebody grabbed me

threw me out on my chair

said before you can eat

you gotta dance like fred astaire



you know i can't dance you know i can't dance

you know i can't dance you know i can't dance

i can't dance



i am a man of the road

a hobo by name

i don't seek entertainment

just poultry and game

but if it's all the same to you

then yes i will try my hand

if you were hungry as me

then i'm sure you will understand



now wait a minute



of course i can dance

of course i can dance

i'm sure i can dance

i'm sure i can dance

i can dance

i really hit the floor

ah it feels good

look at me dancing



i did a two-step quick-step and a bossanova

a little victor sylvester and a rudy valentino

you should have seen me moving

right across the floor

hand me down my tuxedo

next week i'm coming back for more



i can dance

oh yes i can dance

look at me dance on the floor moving

i feel good

i can dance

i can dance

i can dance

i can dance

i can dance

i can dance
