Canned music, canned music

Playin’ on the radio

Canned music, canned music

Without a dime it doesn’t go

Favorites on the jukebox are only half a show

When it’s canned music, canned music

A little before she left me

I asked her what it’s all about

She, I feel like dancin’

I feel like steppin’ out

I took her where the band was on a stand

Playin’ live music, live music

She got us on the dance floor

To me it was a sight

I never seen my baby movin’

Like the moves she made on me that night

I did not have a chance the way

That music made me dance

It was live music, live music

It ain’t canned

*Repeat

The rhythm was all around us

And we was really steppin’ out

My baby said, I’m livin’ for this music

I asked her what it’s all about

She said, I’m such a silly girl

This stuff has got me in a whirl

Ain’t it live music, live music

And that was the night she left me

Danced herself into my memory

My baby had to leave me for the drummer

I guess I’ll never solve that mystery

I think I’ve learned my lesson

Just don’t get too near the band

When it’s live music, live music

A little before she left me

I asked her what it’s all about

She said, she feel like dancin’

Feel like steppin’ out
