Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everybody, get on your feet
You make me nervous when you're in your seat
Take off your shoes and pat your feet
We're doin' a dance that can't be beat
[Verse 2]
We're barefootin' now
Yeah
Yeah
All night long, now listen
[Verse 3]
Went to a party the other night
Long Tall Sally was outta sight
Took off her wig and high heel sneakers, too
She did the dance without any shoes
[Verse 4]
She was barefootin' (Ha)
Yeah, ah
Baby
Yeah
Uh
[Verse 5]
Hey little girl with your red dress on
Bet you can barefoot all night long
Take off your shoes and throw 'em away
Come back and get 'em another day
[Verse 6]
We're barefootin' now
That's what we doin' baby
Yeah
Uh
All night long
Ow
[Verse 7]
Uh
Oh, you barefootin' tonight
Listen
[Verse 8]
Little Joe Henry, he said to Sue
"If I barefoot, would you barefoot, too?"
Sue told Joe, I said it, too
"I was barefootin' ever since I was two"
[Verse 9]
We're barefootin' yeah
Yeah, yeah
Baby
All night long
[Verse 10]
Baby
Yeah
Take off your shoes
Oh yeah
Take off your shoes baby
Get that groove
