The circus came to town, your little brother pulled me around Behind the tent, behind the tent we went He slipped his hand in mine, soon it would take dynamite For us to part, for us to break apart Your little brother sure can dance, uh-huh Your little brother sure can dance And he was smooth, and he was moving fast Your little brother sure can dance Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Big brother's pissed, he pulls us apart, makes a fist I see his eyes, I see his eyes surprised Big brother says, look at your hair Girl, it's a mess, your hair, your dress What do you say to this? I say, your little brother sure can dance, uh-huh Your little brother sure can dance And he was smooth, and he was moving fast Your little brother sure can dance We were just dancing, do you know how good that feels? We were just moving, kicking up our heels Your little brother sure can dance, uh-huh Your little brother sure can dance And he was smooth, and he was moving fast Your little brother sure can dance Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
