1. DANCING IN THE MOONLIGHT



When I passed you in the doorway
Well you took me with a glance
I should have took that last bus home
But I asked you for a dance

Now we go steady to the pictures
I always get chocolate stains on my pants
And my father he's going crazy
He says I'm living in a trance

But I'm dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight
It's alright, alright
Dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night

It's three o'clock in the morning
And I'm on the streets again
I disobeyed another warning
I should have been in by ten

Now I won't get out until Sunday
I'll have to say I stayed with friends
But it's a habit worth forming
If it means to justify the end

Dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight
It's alright, alright
Dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night

And I'm walking home
The last bus has long gone
But I'm dancing in the moonlight


Dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight
It's alright, alright
Dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night

Dancing in the moonlight I'm dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight It's caught me in in It's spotlight
Dancing in the moonlight dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night It's got me hot

Dancing in the moonlight I'm dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight It's caught me alright Alright alright
Dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night (It's so got them hot

Dancing in the moonlight I'm dancing
It's caught me in its spotlight I'm still dancing
Dancing in the moonlight I'm dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night...






2. BAD REPUTATION




You got a bad reputation
That's the word out on the town
It gives a certain fascination
But it can only bring you down

You better turn yourself around
Turn yourself around
Turn it upside down
Turn yourself around

You had bad breaks well that's tough luck
You play too hard too much rough stuff
You're too sly so cold
That bad reputation has made you old

Turn yourself around
Turn yourself around
Turn it upside down
Turn yourself around
