Lyrics
By: jimmy buffett 1973 Walkin' down new streets, music is loud Neon signs bring in tumultuous crowds But I'm just an old man, I'd probably get sore 'Cause they don't 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 don't 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 wouldn't dare But they don't dance like carmen nowhere
"Shk chk, shk chk, shk chk"
Ah but the lady's not with us, she died long ago And they don't show her movies on late midnight shows 'Cause the kids would get restless, and the grown-ups would snore 'Cause they don't 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 don't dance like carmen no more
No more No no no more And I'm just an old man, I'd probably get sore But they don't dance like carmen no more Nah they don't dance like carmen no more
Coda: Ten cents dance, I might take a chance But they don't dance like carmen no more
