They're Not Tryin' On The Dance Floor

(album: Having A Party With Jonathan Richman - 1991)

Oh, they're not trying on the dance floor no
They're just moving slow
They're not trying much there on the floor
And they're moving me more
They're just hanging around the bar
And there your dancing starts
They're not trying on the dance floor no
They're just moving slow

Doing no one thing that I could mention
They're not trying to get your attention
And they're not showin you all they got
They don't care if you're there or not
Like Sheboygan or Eau Claire
They're just there
They're not trying on the dance floor no
They're just moving slow

I'm sure they're not showing you all they got
They don't care if you're there or not

Oh, they're not moving very much
They just have that certain touch
And that's really all there is to it
If they don't feel it they won't do it
Like Centralia or Duluth
Well, they're telling ya the truth
They're not trying on the dance floor no
They're just moving slow
They're not tryin much there on the floor
And they're moving me more
