Some Days You Gotta Dance Lyrics - Covers - James Taylor

It was about five till five on Friday 

We were all getting ready to go 

And the boss man started screaming 

And his veins began to show 

He said you and you come with me 

Cause you're gonna have to stay 

My heart was thumping, I was jumping 

I had to get away 

[Chorus] 

Some days you gotta dance 

Live it up when you get the chance 

Cause when the world doesn't make no sense 

And you're feeling just a little too tense 

Gotta loosen up those chains and dance 

Well, I was talking with my baby 

Over a small glass of tea 

He asked the loaded question 

He said how do you feel about me 

My mind was racing, I was pacing 

But the word just wouldn't come 

And there was only one thing 

Left to do I feel it coming on 

[Chorus: x2] 

You gotta loosen up those chains and dance 

Come on and loosen up those chains and dance
