Hot sun Beating Burning wal- around
down my feet king
C C G G F G G
Hot sun beating down
C C G G Bb C
burning my feet just walking around.
(Same thing:)
Hot sun making me sweat
'Gators getting close, hasn't got me yet
Chorus: (same tune as verse)
C C G G F G G
I can't dance, I can't talk.
C C G G Bb C
The only thing about me is the way I walk.
I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing here selling everything.
Verse 2:
Blue jeans sitting on the beach,
her dog's talking to me, but she's out of reach.
She's got a body under that shirt,
but all she wants to do is rub my face in the dirt.
'Cause, I can't dance, I can't talk.
The only thing about me is the way I walk.
No, I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing here selling.

Bb F
And checking everything is in place,
C
you never know who's looking on.
Verse 3:
Young punk spilling beer on my shoes,
fat guy's talking to me trying to steal my blues.
Thick smoke, see her smiling through.
I never thought so much could happen just shooting pool.
But I can't dance, I can't talk.
The only thing about me is the way I walk.
I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing here selling

End:
Play chorus lots of time with loads of scat vocals...while
playing the "intro-riff"...
and singing:
"I won't dance, please don't ask me..."
