You Make Me Feel Like Dancing Lyrics

[Intro: female Chorus]
Ahh
Ah-ha
Ahh
Ah-ha

[Verse 1: Leo Sayer]
You've got a cute way of talking
You got the better of me
Just snap your fingers
And I'm walking
Like a dog hanging on your lead

[Pre-Chorus: Leo Sayer & female chorus]
I'm in a spin you know (Ahh)
Shaking on a string you know (Ahh)

[Chorus: Leo Sayer & female chorus]
You make me feel like dancing
I'm gonna dance the night away
You make me feel like dancing
I'm gonna dance the night away
You make feel like dancing

[Post-Chorus: Leo Sayer & female chorus]
I feel like dancing (Woo)
Dancing (Woo)
Dance the night away (Yeah)
I feel like dancing (Woo)
Dancing
Ahh
[Verse 2: Leo Sayer]
Quarter to four in the morning
I ain't feeling tired
No, no, no, no, no
Just hold me tight
And leave on the light
'Cause I don't want to go home

[Pre-Chorus: Leo Sayer & female chorus]
You put a spell on me (Ahh)
I'm right where you want me to be (Ahh)

[Repeat Chorus: Leo Sayer & female chorus]
You make me feel like dancing
I'm gonna dance the night away
You make me feel like dancing
I'm gonna dance the night away
You make feel like dancing

[Post-Chorus: Leo Sayer & female chorus]
I feel like dancing (Woo)
Dancing (Woo)
Dancing (Woo)
Dance the night away (Yeah)
I feel like dancing (Woo)
Dancing (Woo)
Dance the night away
I feel like dancing (Woo)
Dancing (Woo)
Dancing (Woo)
Dance the night away (Yeah)
Dancing
Ahh
[Bridge: Leo Sayer & female chorus]
Do do do do, do do do do
Do do do do, do do do do
(Woo-oo)
Do do do do, do do do do (Ah-ha)
Do do do do, do do do do

[Pre-Chorus: Leo Sayer & female chorus]
And if you'll let me stay (Ahh)
We'll dance our lives away (Ahh)

[Chorus: Leo Sayer & female chorus, Leo Sayer]
You make me feel like dancing
I wanna dance my life away
You make me feel like dancing
I wanna dance my life away
You make me feel like dancing
I wanna dance my life away

You make me feel like dancing (I feel)
I wanna dance my life away (I feel)
You make me feel like dancing

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
