  • It was about five 'til five on Friday
    We were all getting ready to go
    And the boss man started screaming
    And his veins began to show
    He said you and you come with me
    'Cause you're gonna have to stay
    My heart was thumping I was jumping
    I had to get away

    Some days you gotta dance
    Live it up when you get the chance
    'Cause when the world doesn't make no sense
    And you're feeling just a little too tense
    Gotta loosen up those chains and dance

    Well I was talking with my baby
    Over a small glass of tea
    He asked the loaded question
    He said now how do you feel about me
    My mind was racin' I was pacin'
    But the words just wouldn't come
    And there was only one thing
    Left to do I feel it commin' on

    Some days you gotta dance
    Live it up when you get the chance
    'Cause when the world doesn't make no sense
    And you're feeling just a little too tense
    Gotta loosen up those chains and dance a ha

    Some days you gotta dance
    Live it up when you get the chance
    'Cause when the world doesn't make no sense
    And you're feeling just a little too tense
    Gotta loosen up those chains and dance

    You gotta loosen up those chains and dance
    Come on and loosen up those chains and dance Writer/s: MARSHALL MORGAN, TROY KENT N JOHNSON
