Gene Chandler - There Was A Time chords
Start Jamming...
One, [Dm] two, three, four.
That was a time when I used to dance.
That was a time when I used to dance.
Steve McNaughton, baby, don't worry about later.
Here's a dance I used to do.
They call them nice potatoes.
Look at this.
That was a dance they call a jerk.
Relax and watch me work.
[G]
[Dm] [Dm]
In my hometown of beautiful boys,
the name of the place is Chicago Real Noise.
Up there, we have a good time.
We don't talk.
It's good we all get together in a class of weather that we do.
The camel walk.
All right, look at this.
Now that was a dance that I used to do.
Now the name of the dance, they call it boogaloo.
I do the dance and well as you.
But you can bet your bottom dollar, you'll never hear me holler.
I do the best that I can do.
All right, look at this.
That was a dance.
Sometimes I dance.
Sometimes I dance.
Baby, sometimes I dance.
Baby, baby, baby dance.
They call me the woman hammer.
They call me the woman hammer.
But you can bet you haven't seen nothing yet.
Until you see me do the dangela.
Woo!
All right.
[N]
