Lyrics

Don't stop - don't stop - don't stop - Jumping locomotion Energetic potion Feel your body keepin' time Pulsing beat into your mind. Automatic action Systematic passion Daylight stepping in the night Colours change to black and white. Lover Don't waste your time 'cause you can make a move. Brother You'll blow your mind if you get into the groove. Don't stop Hungry dancer Come and do the Charleston Modern day romancer Get back to the Charleston. Don't stop Hungry dancer Come and do the Charleston Modern day romancer Get back to the Charleston. Dance until the mon@ing See your partner glowing Back and forth You move your feet Steaming hot You feel the heat. Step back in the old days Loving with the new ways See you must have a good time Happiness is in a climb. Music It seems to change But people are the same. Choose it what you prefer But dancing will remain. Don't stop Hungry dancer Come and do the Charleston . . . Don't stop Hungry dancer Come and do the Charleston . . .
