No I ain't got two left feet
Confident in dancing, but feels awkward due to a girl's presence
but that girl makes me think that I do
The girl's gracefulness makes the singer feel clumsy
By the way that she moves on that floor
Impressed by the girl's movements on the dance floor
No I can hardly stand
Uncomfortable sitting and watching rather than dancing
Sitting here on the side
Feeling left out by not participating in dancing
Watching her spinning around and around under that neon light
Envious of the girl's joyful dancing under the neon light
Its killing me
Feeling tormented by the situation
Gimme another drink
Seeking solace or distraction by asking for another drink
She got them blue bells on
Describing the girl's attire with blue embellishments
Dancing along
Enjoying the music and dancing
She don't take a break no she don't skip a song
Girl dances continuously without taking breaks
Half stepping away
Not fully engaging in dancing, hesitating
To what the DJ plays
Following the DJ's music without pause
Ain't seen her turn down a dance all day
Impressed by the girl's dedication to dancing
And I'm over drinking
Unhappy with current situation, considering thoughts
Sitting here thinking
Reflecting and daydreaming about dancing with the girl
Dreaming about her hand in my hand
Imagining holding hands with the girl while dancing
That girl makes me wish I could dance
The girl's dancing makes the singer wish he could dance
I usually come here
Typical routine involves drinking with friends on Fridays
Have a couple of beers
Drinking beer is a regular part of the singer's routine
Raise some hell with the guys like every Friday night yeah its all the same
Engages in rowdy behavior with friends on Fridays
She got me feeling like
Feeling regretful for missing the chance to dance
Missing out on a good time
Hesitant to ask the girl to dance, lacks confidence
Maybe in a round or two I'll get the nerve to ask her for try
Considering asking the girl to dance but hesitating
On second thought though
Reconsidering asking the girl due to her impressive dancing
Just look at her go
Admiring the girl's dance skills, feeling further discouraged
