No one even knows
if you could love me or not
But I’ve never been afraid
Of a long shot
And no one even knows
If I could love you back
But now’s not the time
Or the place to dwell on that
So just quit acting shy, Ms. Fancypants
There’s a rumor on the dance floor that it’s time to dance
The radio’s playing old rockabilly
Oh baby, now ain’t no time to leave
These half-drunk Boston boys
Keep on losing their bets
They try to keep up with the music
But just fall out of step
And all the rest of them here
Don’t know which way is up
But you and I got it all figured out
And we might as well have some fun
So just quit acting shy, Ms. Fancypants
There’s a rumor on the dance floor that it’s time to dance
The radio’s playing some old rockabilly
Oh baby, now ain’t no time to leave my side
It’s cold in your car It’s cold on the backroads under the stars As you sail home Dream as you steer Cause now ain’t no time to leave here
