They Dont Dance Like Carmen No More — текст песни (Jimmy Buffett)

By: jimmy buffett

1973

Walkin down new streets, music is loud

Neon signs bring in tumultuous crowds

But Im just an old man, Id probably get sore

cause they dont dance like carmen no more



She and ol cougie, my what a pair

Jus doin the rhumba as no one else dared

Slidin and glidin cross hollywood floors

But they dont dance like carmen no more



-- spoken:

"take it marvin"



"shk chk, shk chk, shk chk"



Well now she had a big hat, my it was high

Had bananas and mangos all piled to the sky

How she could balance it, I wouldnt dare

But they dont dance like carmen nowhere



"shk chk, shk chk, shk chk"



Ah but the ladys not with us, she died long ago

And they dont show her movies on late midnight shows

cause the kids would get restless, and the grown-ups would snore

cause they dont dance like carmen no more



Well now she and old cougie, my what a pair

Just doin the boogie as no one else dared

Slidin and glidin cross hardwood waxed floors

But they dont dance like carmen no more



No more

No no no more

And Im just an old man, Id probably get sore

But they dont dance like carmen no more

Nah they dont dance like carmen no more



Coda:

Ten cents dance, I might take a chance

But they dont dance like carmen no more
