[Verse]

A        A  G/A A
 Hot sun beating  down
G/A A                    G  C     D
    Burning my feet just walking around
G/A A        A G/A  A
     Hot sun making me sweat
G/A A                        G       C  D
   'Gators getting close, hasn't got me yet


[Chorus]

A              A G/A A
I can't dance, I can't talk
G/A  A                      G       C D
 The only thing about me is the way I walk
A              A G/A A
I can't dance, I can't sing
G/A A                      G  C    G   | A | % |
    I'm just standing here selling everything


[Verse]

A                   A  G/A A
 Blue jeans sitting on   the  beach
G/A   A                        G     C      D
  Her dog's talking to me, but she's out of reach
A                 A G/A A
 She's got a body under that shirt
G/A   A                          G       C      D
  But all she wants to do is rub my face in the dirt


[Chorus]

A              A G/A A
I can't dance, I can't talk
G/A  A                      G       C D
 The only thing about me is the way I walk
A              A G/A A
I can't dance, I can't sing
G/A A                      G  D    G  D
    I'm just standing here selling   [Oh and ...]

[Verse]

A                    A    G/A A
 Young punk spilling beer on  my shoes
G/A A                              G        C  D
    Fat guy's talking to me trying to steal my blues
A                 A G/A A
 Thick smoke, see her smiling through
G/A        A                              G    C    D
 I never thought so much could happen just shooting pool


[Chorus]

    A              A G/A A
But I can't dance, I can't talk
G/A  A                      G       C D
 The only thing about me is the way I walk

Oh, and checking everything is in place

You never know who's looking on
C                Bb              G
 The perfect body with a perfect face ...
