Canned Heat - Jamiroquai
(words and music: Kay/Smith; EMI Music Publishing; Sony)

You know this boogie is for real
I used to put my faith in worship
But then my chance feels just too heaven sent
I used to worry about the future
But now I throw my caution to the wi-i-i-ind

I had no reason to be carefree
No, no, no
Until I took a trip to the other side of town
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know I heard that boogie rhythm, hey!
I had no choice but to get down, down, down, down

Dance! Whooo!
Nothing left for me to do but dance
All these bad times I'm going through
Just dance!
Got canned heat in my heels tonight, baby...
Whoooooo ohhh

I feel the thunder, see the lightning
I know this anger's heaven sent
So I've gotta hang out on my hang-ups
'Cos on my boogie I feel so hell-bent hey, hey
It's just an instant gut reaction, that I got
I know I've never ever felt like this before
I don't know what to do
But then that is nothing new
Stuck between hell and high water, me I'll kill to make it through, hey!

Dance, yeah
Nothing left for me to do but dance!
All these bad times I'm going through
Just dance! hey
Got canned heat in my heels tonight, baby...

You know this boogie is for real, gal
So much canned heat in my heals, yeah
Gonna dance, gonna dance my blues away tonight
You know I'm gonna dance my blues away
You know this boogie is for real, gal
So much canned heat in my heals, yeah
Gonna dance, gonna dance my blu-u-u-es awa-a-a-y toni-i-i-ght

Dance! Whooo!
Nothing left for me to do but dance
All these bad times I'm going through
Just dance
Got canned heat in my heels tonight, baby
Whoooooo ohhh

Dance, yeah
Oh the nasty things that people say
Dance, yeah
But I'm gonna make it anyway
Dance, yeah
Canned heat in my heals tonight, baby

You know that this boogie is for real
Got so much canned heat in my heals
Gonna dance, gonna dance my blues away tonight

Whooo!
You know, you know this boogie, this boogie is for real
Got so much canned heat, canned heat in my heals...
