I don't care if I got no money
I don't care if I got a dime
All I want to do is to dance with you honey
Please tell me you have the time
'Cause I gotta get back on my feet again
Gotta get back on the street again.
La, la, la
Well I don't care if I got no fame
All I want to do is to hold your hand
Don't care if nobody knows my name
'Cause I just want to try the best I can (yes I do)
I gotta get back on my feet again
Gotta get back on the street again.
La, la, la
Well, I don't know just what the world is coming to
And I don't know just what is going on among you
Well all I really know is I gotta get back on my feet again
Help me up now.
I don't care if I got no money
I don't care if I got dime
All I want to do is to dance with you baby
Please tell me that you got the time.
'Cause I've gotta get back on my feet again
Gotta get back on the street again.
La, la, la
Stand it up for me now momma.
