[Intro]
C A F G
C A F G

[Verse]
C A F G
Walkin' down new streets the music is loud
C A F G
Neon signs bring in tumultuous crowds
F G C A
But I'm just an old man, I'd probably get sore
F G C C A F G
Cause they don't dance like Carmen no more

[Verse]
C A F G
She and old Cougie, my what a pair
C A F G
Just doin' the Rhumba as no one else dared
F G C A
Slidin' and glidin' past Hollywood floors
F G C C A F G
But they don't dance like Carmen no more

[Verse]
C A F G
She had a big hat, my it was high
C A F G
Had bananas and mangos all piled to the sky
F G C A
And how she could balance it, I wouldn't dare
F G C C A F G
Cause they don't dance like Carmen nowhere

[Verse]
C A F G
But the lady's not with us, she died long ago
C A F G
And they don't run her movies on late midnight shows
F G C A
Cause the kids would get restless, and the grown-ups would snore
F G C C A F G
Cause they don't dance like Carmen no more

[Verse]
C A F G
She and old Cougie, my what a pair
C A F G
Just doin' the Rhumba as no one else dared
F G C A
Slidin' and glidin' past hardwood waxed floors
F G C
But they don't dance like Carmen no more

[Outro]
A
No more, no more
F G C A
And I'm just an old man, I'd probably get sore
F G C
No they don't dance like Carmen no more
C A
10 cents a dance, might take a chance
F G C
No they don't dance like Carmen no more
