He got a frame like a busted bike
He got a face that nobody likes to see
Nobody but me! (nobody but me)

And he got a thing or two to learn about love
He act like he ain't never heard of romance
So why'd I give him a chance?

My baby can dance (my baby can dance)
My baby can swing (my baby can sing)
My baby can shake me slow
So I don't need no other thing! (oh yes)

My baby can dance (my baby can dance)
My baby can sway (my baby can sway)
My baby can hold me tight enough
To drive my cares away (away)

(My baby can)
We go out to the joint downtown
I dress up and he dress down, but it (but it)
Don't matter one bit
It really don't matter!

We got something better than class
Who needs love when love don't last that long? (not that long)
And all we need is a song, jus' need a song!

My baby can dance (my baby can dance)
My baby can groove (yes he can groove)
My baby can shut me up
So I listen to the music and move (no way!)

My baby can dance (yes, my baby can dance)
My baby can sway (my baby can sway)
My baby can hold me tight enough
To drive my cares away (away)

My baby can
Bap, bap, bap, di, di, dit
Dance with my, my baby
Yes, I wil Not maybe
We will dance all night!

My baby can move (can move)
He can, oh swing me low
He can, ooh, oh swing low
Woh, woh, woh, woh, who!

My baby can dance (my baby can dance)
My baby can swing (my baby can swing)
My baby can shake me slow
So I don't need no other thing (oh yes)

My baby can dance (my baby can dance)
My baby can sway (oh my baby can sway)
My baby can hold me tight enough
To drive my cares

Ev'ry time we swing and sway
We'll dance enough to drive my cares away
(My baby can swing, my baby can sway)
My cares away!
(Baby can dance, baby can sway!)
(Drives my cares away!)
