They Don't Dance Like Carmen No More

They Don't Dance Like Carmen No More - Jimmy Buffett

Walkin' down new streets music is loud

Neon signs bring in tumultuous crowds

But I'm just an old man I'd probably get sore

'Cause they don't dance like Carmen no more

She and old Cougie my what a pair

Just doin' the rhumba as no one else dared

Slidin' and glidin' 'cross Hollywood floors

But they don't dance like Carmen no more

Well now she had a big hat my it was high

Had bananas and mangoes all piled to the sky

How she could balance it I wouldn't dare

But they don't dance like Carmen nowhere

Ah but the lady's not with us she died long ago

And they don't show her movies on late midnight shows

'Cause the kids would get restless

And the grown-ups would snore

'Cause they don't dance like Carmen no more

Well now she and old Cougie my what a pair

Just doin' the boogie as no one else dared

Slidin' and glidin' 'cross hardwood waxed floors

But they don't dance like Carmen no more

No more no no no more

And I'm just an old man I'd probably get sore

But they don't dance like Carmen no more

Nah they don't dance like Carmen no more

Ten cents dance I might take a chance

But they don't dance like Carmen no more
