Put On Your Dancin' Shoes

Steve Winwood

So much going on out there, leaves us hanging in the air

And it's all that we can do to face each day and see it though

Life's a dance, put on your dancing shoes, take a chance



You can't shut your eyes to pain, faces crying in the rain

You can't keep it all inside, you need some way to let it ride

Life's a dance, put on your dancing shoes, take a chance



When you're all over, when you know you've done all that you can do

Put on your dancing shoes, it'll see you through



Voices shouting in the street, life lived to a ragged beat

Someone's world is tumbling down, and who's the saint and where's the clown?

Life's a dance, put on your dancing shoes, take a chance



When you're all over, when you know you've done all that you can do

Put on your dancing shoes, it'll see you through

When time is flying, when you know there's no end to these modern blues

Put on your dancing shoes, it'll see you through
