Strum
D-DU-UDU
We  are the last of the jukebox  Romeos,
 We are romantics  by the light of the full moon
 Came to sing out a chorus,  reinvent the good  times
 Bring'in it all  back home again
 ]
 Honey we  came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes
 Do the jump  back jack stop and slide to the right
Never  break their hearts, never make 'em cry, come  on
Strike  up the band, play a song that everybody knows
 If  I'm not your kind then don't tell a soul
I'm  not the one who hates being alone, so come on
And  in the sun-stabled arena
Of  what's left or become of my America
I'm  asking this dance, so come take my hand, come  on
And  in the sun-stabled arena
Of  what's left or become of my America
I'm  asking this dance, so come take my hand, come  on
 Honey we  came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes
 Do the jump  back jack stop and slide to the right
Never  break their hearts, never make 'em cry, come  on
Strike  up the band, play a song that everybody knows
 If  I'm not your kind then don't tell a soul
I'm  not the one who hates being alone, so come on
 (One strum- *)
And  if they end it all by  the end of tonight
If  the big bomb drops down over this quiet  Edison sky
We'll  blow one last kiss to  all the beautiful nights like this
 (  hammer)
 Under the central Jersey sky
 Honey we  came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes
 Do the jump  back jack stop and slide to the right
Never  break their hearts, never make 'em cry, come  on
Strike  up the band, play a song that everybody knows
 If  I'm not your kind then don't tell a soul
I'm  not the one who hates being alone, so come on
'Cause  you ain't never had a night on the town
Like  I could show you such a night on the town
And  you ain't never had a song you could sing
 Well it's a  deep, dark night, and I hear you, I've been there
But  these are the songs that we sing
 Whoa-oh, these  are the songs that we sing
 You've never seen a two  step (two-step)
 Like when you seen it from your mama's  house
 When the kids flash like lightning to the very  best dancers around
 We learned from the very  best dancers around
 We learned from the very  best dancers in town
 Come take my hand
 'Cause mama we came to dance
