My baby's asking where I've been
Said I've been flirting with the wind
My baby's asking where I've been, oh
Came home shaking, shivering
My baby's got me in a spin
I don't know if I'll ever win
Oh, 'cause it's too much of a risk
To tell her who my Jackie is
Who my Jackie, who my Jackie is
My soul is wearing thin
Who knew that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
My baby wants me home and dry
My left foot wants me up all night
Sweet Tammi's keeping track of time
While I'm two steppin' on the line
I'm two steppin, steppin' on the line
Oh, my soul is wearing thin
Who knew that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Let me tell you a little somethin' about it
She's been tryna tie me down for a real long time
But she don't move like this moves me
She's nice and all, but you know what
It's a shame she doesn't get it
It's a shame she doesn't see
It don't make me a traitor
And it don't make me cheat
You can try to stop the music
But you can't stop my feet
Just give me a bourbon, a bass line and a beat
My soul is wearing thin
Who knew that dancing was a sin
Oh, my soul is wearing thin
Who knew that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
Who knew, who knew, that dancing was a sin
