V6-WILD

[Intro: high guitars ringing, the bass rolling in]

[Verse 1: bright powerful female lead]
They pushed the tables to the walls when the band came in at ten
Every auntie hit the floor before the drummer counted in
And you stood beside the coat rack like a lamp somebody left
In a shirt your mother ironed, holding soda to your chest
I said come on, it's easy, baby, just do what I do
You moved like a filing cabinet somebody dragged across the room

[Chorus: female lead]
You got lead feet, baby, so let me lead
Heavy as a Monday, stiff as brand new jeans
Hold on to my waist and leave the floor to me
You got lead feet, baby, so let me lead

[Verse 2: female lead, laughing]
Second song, you try a spin and nearly take the birthday cake
Third song, you catch the beat and drop it like a glass of wine
Uncle Felix steps in to teach you, and now that's two mistakes
Two grown men like movers hauling a couch upstairs in time
[Male voice, sung]
I'm trying, I'm trying, my knees don't know the plan
[Female lead]
Your knees don't need a plan, just give me both your hands

[Chorus]
You got lead feet, baby, so let me lead
Heavy as a Monday, stiff as brand new jeans
Hold on to my waist and leave the floor to me
You got lead feet, baby, so let me lead

[Sebene: the guitars take off faster, the whole floor lifts]

[Verse 3: female lead, sweeter inside the groove]
Midnight, they're stacking up the chairs, and you still dance like a door
You never found the hips, you never found the one-two on the floor
But you never let go of my hand, not once, not for a song
And a man who holds on that tight can be off beat all night long
[Male voice, sung]
I'll never move like you do, girl, I got the rhythm of a mailbox
[Female lead]
Then stand there, mailbox, I'll dance around you till the music stops

[Final Chorus: guitars blazing]
You got lead feet, baby, heavy as a vow
Every light-footed man I knew went floating off somehow
Hold on to my waist and let the guitars carry the day
You got lead feet, baby, and you never float away

[Outro: guitars sparkling down to the bass]
[End]
