Lyrics

Dancing may do this and that
And help you take off lots of fat
But I′m no friend of dancing when it's hot
So if you are a dancing fool
Who loves to dance but can′t keep cool
Bear in mind the idea that I've got
When it gets too hot for comfort
And you can't get ice cream cones
Tain′t no sin
To take off your skin
And dance around in your bones
When the lazy syncopation
Of the music softly moans
Tain′t no sin
To take off your skin
And dance around in your bones
The polar bears aren't greener than Greenland
They′ve got the right idea
They think it's great
To refrigerate
While we all cremate down here
Just be like those bamboo babies
In the south sea tropic zones
Tain't no sin
To take off your skin
And dance around in your bones
When you callin′ up your sweetie
In those hot house telephones
Tain't no sin
To take off your skin
And dance around in your bones
When you're on the crowded dance floor
With those red hot saxophones
Tain′t no sin
To take off your skin
And dance around in your bones
Take a look at the girls when they dancing
Notice the way they′re dressed
They wear silken clothes
Without any holes
And nobody knows the rest
No more singing in the bathtub
With those television phones
Tain't no sin
To take off your skin
And dance around in your bones
Now we all gathered by the river
Listen to your Deacon Jones
Tain′t no sin
To take off your skin
And dance around in your bones
You must all go in that water
Let me hear your sinful groans
Tain't no sin
To take off your skin
And dance around in your bones
Do what i say right away
Wicked sinners
For this is your judgement day
Come Andele, in the river with me
Wash your sins away
Throw away your gin and razor
Throw away your gambling bones
Tain′t no sin
To take off your skin
And dance around in your bones
